The Red Sea Bream's nematode and Sparus aurata, sampled from the Iskenderun Bay, North-eastern Mediterranean in March 2008 were analysed by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) for their some heavy metal (Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Mg, Pb and Zn) levels. The metal concentrations of the parasites were compared to different organs (liver, muscle, swimbladder, intestine and skin) of the fish hosts. The highest Cd (0.303 mg/kgg ww) concentrations were found in the muscle, highest Cr (4.932 mg/kg ww), Hg (2.350 mg/kg ww) Pb (22.82 mg/kg ww) concentrations were found in the parasite, highest Cu (7.608 mg/kg ww) and Fe (176.7 mg/kg ww) concentrations were found in the liver, highest Mn (31.24 mg/kg ww) Zn (78.51 mg/kg ww) concentrations were found in the swimbladder for parasitized fish. The highest Cd (0.612 mg/kg ww), Cu (8.261 mg/kg ww) Fe (261.1 mg/kg ww) concentrations were found in the liver, highest Cr (6.123 mg/kg ww) and Pb (9.125 mg/kg ww) concentrations were found in the intestine, highest Hg (2.013 mg/kg ww) Zn (83.30 mg/kg ww) and Mn (41.24 mg/kg ww) concentrations were found in the swimbladder for un-parasitized fish.

Apportionment of PCB Sources Near a Transformer Maintenance and Repair Facility in Ankara, Turkey
Karakas, Filiz; Gedik, Kadir; İmamoğlu, İpek (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-08-01)
The concentration and major sources of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were evaluated in the sediments from a special environmental protection area located near a transformer maintenance and repair facility (TMRF) in Ankara, Turkey. aPCB concentrations analyzed on Aroclor and congener basis (seven indicator congeners) ranged from 0.1 to 84.2 and 0.1 to 21.7 ng/g dry weight, respectively. Results show that higher total PCB concentrations were localized around one of the drainage channels of the TMRF. Identi...
Trace level determination of beryllium in natural and flavored mineral waters after pre-concentration using activated carbon
KILINÇ, ERSİN; Bakirdere, Sezgin; YAMAN, MEHMET (Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01)
The concentrations of beryllium (Be) in natural and flavored mineral water samples were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer (FAAS) after pre-concentration based on the complexation of Be(+2) with a mixture of acetylacetone (pentane-2,4-dione) plus morin (3,5,7,2',4'-pentaoxyflavone) and adsorption on activated carbon. The adsorbed complex was eluted with 1.5 ml of 2.0 M HNO(3) and evaporated to dryness. After adding 1.5 ml of 2 M HNO(3) and centrifuging, Be in acid solution was determine...
Trace metal levels in fish and crustacea from Northeastern Mediterranean coastal waters
Balkas, Turgut I; Tuğrul, Süleyman; Salihoǧlu, Ǐlkay (Elsevier BV, 1982-06-01)
Some fish and crustacea caught near the northeastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey between 1977 and 1980 have been analysed by the AAS technique for their H Hg, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, Fe, Ni, Cr and Mn contents. In the crustacea Portunus pelagicus (crab) and Penaeus keratherus (shrimp), the two essential elements Zn and Cu, showed a linear correlation. Among the bony fish, Upeneus moluccensis (gold band goat fish), a member of the Mullidae family, and Portunus pelagicus showed a much greater tendency to accumulate...
Modeling polychlorinated biphenyl congener patterns and dechlorination in dated sediments from the Ashtabula River, Ohio, USA
İmamoğlu, İpek; Chrıstensen, Er (Wiley, 2002-11-01)
Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners were analyzed in four deep, dated sediment cores from the Ashtabula River (OH, USA), for the purpose of identifying relevant PCB sources and congener patterns. The time span for three of the cores is from the mid 1960s to 1998, whereas the fourth has a time span of six years. The total PCB concentrations are in the range of 0.4 to 6.8 mug/g dry weight, with the highest concentrations observed in samples from the 1970s. A factor analysis (FA) model with nonnegative co...
TRANSPORT OF DISSOLVED DISPERSED PETROLEUM-HYDROCARBONS IN THE NORTHEASTERN MEDITERRANEAN
YILMAZ, A; SAYDAM, AC; BASTURK, O; SALIHOGLU, I (Informa UK Limited, 1991-01-01)
The distribution and transportation of Dissolved/Dispersed Petroleum Hydrocarbons (DDPH) were investigated in the Northern Levantine together with the physical dynamics of the region. It was clearly observed that the characteristic meso‐scale eddies formed in the area strongly affect the distribution of this pollutant. A recent example of cruises which was performed in March 1989, covered relatively large scale are in the Eastern Mediterranean and the chemistry studies coupled with the physical data for thi...
