对采自北太平洋北方的短尾剪翅雀（Puffinus tenuirostris）腹部脂肪中的多溴联苯醚（PBDEs）进行了分析。在12只鸟中的3只中，我们检测到了溴化程度较高的同系物（即，BDE-209和BDE-183），这些物质不存在于鸟类的天然猎物（中上层鱼类）中。在这三只鸟的胃中发现的塑料中也存在相同的化合物。这些数据表明，塑料衍生的化学品从摄入的塑料转移到海洋生物的组织。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
We analyzed polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in abdominal adipose of oceanic seabirds (short-tailed shearwaters, Puffinus tenuirostris) collected in northern North Pacific Ocean. In 3 of 12 birds, we detected higher-brominated congeners (viz., BDE209 and BDE183), which are not present in the natural prey (pelagic fish) of the birds. The same compounds were present in plastic found in the stomachs of the 3 birds. These data suggested the transfer of plastic-derived chemicals from ingested plastics to the tissues of marine-based organisms. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
