Determination of organotin compounds in marine sediments from Arctic Svalbard and West Antarctic Fildes Peninsula.
Marine pollution bulletin(2023)
摘要
This study investigated the contamination levels of five typical organotin compounds in Arctic and Antarctic marine sediments. Organotin total concentrations ranged from not detected (ND) to 37.9 ng Sn/g dw and from ND to 34.0 ng Sn/g dw in surface sediments of Svalbard and Fildes Peninsula, respectively. Dibutyltin accounted for 11.3 %-100 % of butyltins in Arctic sediments, whilst diphenyltin was the predominant phenyltin species in both Arctic and Antarctic. However, the concentrations of tributyltin and triphenyltin were lower than low-substituted organotins in the study areas, indicating the effectiveness of international ban on the use of triorganotin-based antifouling paints. No significant difference in organotin contamination was found between Arctic and Antarctic, although the time suffered from human interference was shorter in the Antarctic. Overall, these data can provide a diagnosis of recent organotin inputs in polar regions and serve as a baseline for future study assessing their local applications.
