samples, TBT lowest concentration values (225 ng rl) corresponded to its highest percentage (71%), while in gills (2,5jlg g-l) corresponded to its lowest (34%). The presence of degradation products in tissues is due not only to metabolic processes but to
direct taking up from sea water, where they were detected, also.
