| Abstract |
Petroleum taints in fish flesh do not necessarily arise by petroleum contamination. Such taints are well known in certain fisheries and have been traced to natural dietary components. Tainting of the flesh which is due to petroleum contamination, however, is usually accompanied by the presence in the flesh of hydrocarbons derived from the contaminating source, but these hydrocarbons are not necessarily responsible for the taint. Experimental tainting studies on benthic organisms by using sediment contaminated with a North Sea crude oil are described. |
