The uptake of organochlorine pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) by aquatic animals can occur from solution via surface in contact with the ambient water or can be taken up from food. Due to their hydrophobicity and low degradability, chlorinated hydrocarbons are able to accumulate to high concentrations in organisms relative to the concentrations present in the aquatic environment (Oliver and Niimi 1988).
