Structures and Chemical Properties- Consists of aromatic rings- Highly nonpolar
-BaP- May degrade in atmosphere by: UV radiation, NO2, 03 and other oxidants in the atmosphere (Ambe and Mukai 1997)
-PCBs-209 congeners, 1-10 chlorines attached to biphenyl ring- “more chlorines = more hydrophobic, less mobile” -Highly stable-Occurs as liquids or solids-Inflammable (high boiling point)- Insulation properties
Safe 1992
Uses and ApplicationPCBs- Used in industry as a coolants, lubricators, dielectric
insulators (Safe 1992)- Marketed as Aroclor, Clophen etc by chlorine
content (ex. Aroclor 1262)- Produced in the US from 1929-1979
BaP- Found in coal tar, automobile exhaust, burning of
organic material (includes smoke and burned food), fuels (esp. diesal)
Mode of Entry in Aquatic Environment
• PCBs:– Industry use– Improper disposal– Found more in the northern hem than in the southern
(this includes water, air, plankton, fish and marine mammals)
– In 1988, 370 x 103 tons of PCBs were estimated to be present in the environment• ~ 360 x 103 tons retained in coastal sediments
and open ocean water
(Tanabe 1988)
• BaP– Binds to strongly sediment and particulate matter
– Oil (petroleum) spills/leaks (Varanasi and Gmur 1981)
– Combustion (Dusk particles in air…potential for transportation)
– Disposal of fossil fuels and fossil fuel-derived products (Kanaly et al 2000)
Mode of Entry in Aquatic Environment
Chemical Reactivity
• BOTH compounds are highly stable, not very biodegradable, and environmentally persistent! (Cerniglia 1992; Tanabe 1988)
• Lipophilic
• Therefore, have high potential to bioaccumulate through food webs* (Wasserman et al., 1979; Tanabe et al. 1981; Peakall, 1987)
*unless metabolized
Toxicity to Aquatic Life• PCBs:
– Differences depending on the structure, order/placement of chlorines, and number of chlorines• Ex. Planar/nonplanar
– “dioxin like” PCBs• 77*, 81*, 105, 114, 118, 123, 126*, 156, 157, 167, 169*, 189• * = most potent in activating AhR and Cyp1A

Toxicity to Aquatic Life• BaP:
– Metabolites more toxic than parent compound (Huberman et al 1976; Gelboin 1980)
– Formation of DNA adducts

Toxic Effects Noted• PCBs
– Wide ranging and varying with species!• Endocrine disruption (Brouwer et al. 1989; Subramanian et al.
1987; Boon et al. 1992)
• Immune suppression (Lahvis et al. 1995; Jepson et al. 1999)
• Reproductive failure (Reijnders 1986)

• BaP– Skin and scrotal cancer (Slaga et al. 1976) – Lung and colon cancer– Ex. Levels of BaP adducts to DNA in St.
Lawrence beluga brain and liver near those associated with carcinogenis in small laboratory animals (Béland et al. 1993)

Mode of Entry into Organisms
• Water (passive absorption) (LeBlanc 1995)
• Food – Bioaccumulation– Ex. Western North Pacific estimated
bioconcentration factor of 107 in striped dolphins (Tanabe et al. 1984)
Molecular mode of toxic interaction• Both are metabolized via Cytochrome P450
systems – Oxidative stress
• BaP– “bioactivation”– DNA adducts and binding to cellular
macromolecules• benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide (BPDE)• Quinones (undergo redox cycling to produce reactive O2
species) (Wood et al 1976)
• Hormone mimics (PCBs)– Hydroxylated PCBs mimic estrogens (Kuiper et al 1998)
– Ex. Changes in human menstral cycles of fish-consumers (Mendola et al. 1997)
Metabolism and Breakdown• PCBs
– VERY SLOW natural breakdown– Metabolism differences depending on the
structure of PCB– Bioaccumulation
• BaP– Fast metabolism– Bacteria breakdown (Kanaley et al 2000)
Defense strategies• PCBs
– Anti-oxidants (Jin et al 2001)
– Adaptation (reduced inducibility)– Hudson River tomcod (Yuan et al. 2006)
• BaP– Epoxide hydrase (formation of diols)– NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase
(Joseph and Jaiswal 1994)
