USING APPLE SNAIL (AMPULLARIIDAE) AS A BIOINDICATOR FOR POLYCHLORINATED DIBENZO-P-DIOXINS AND DIBENZOFURANS,POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYL, AND POLYBROMINATED DIPHENYL ETHERS IN AN E-WASTE DISMANTLING AREA IN SOUTHEAST CHINA
In this study, 40 apple snails (Ampullariidae) and related soils samples were collected in June of 2008 from Taizhou, an intensive e-waste recycling area. Apple snail was used as a bioindicator to evaluate the contamination extent and spatial distribution of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans(PCDD/Fs), polybrominated biphenyl ethers (PBDEs). The total PBDE and total PCDD/Fs concentrations in these organisms were on the same order of magnitude. Among these three organohalogens, PCBs were the most serious pollutant in the Taizhou area. And among all sampling sites, Fengjiang Town was the most intensively polluted spot. ∑PCBs concentrations of both apple snails and soil samples were negative related to the distance from Fengjiang Town, which indicated that Fengjiang Town was the primary source of PCBs in this area.
