Among all the POPs analysed in this study, the ∑NDL-PCBs were the most abundant compounds found in the blubber (mean: 1.33 × 10<sup>5</sup>–0.65 × 10<sup>5</sup> ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lipid weight (lw) for males and females respectively), followed by ∑DDX (1.11 × 10<sup>4</sup>–4.67 × 10<sup>3</sup> ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑DL-PCBs (8.06 × 10<sup>3</sup>–2.62 × 10<sup>3</sup>ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑PBDEs (1.95 × 10<sup>3</sup>–0.64 × 10<sup>3</sup>ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > dieldrin (1.86 × 10<sup>3</sup>–0.18 × 10<sup>3</sup> ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑endosulfan (405–62 ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > HCB (86–52 ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑HCHs (47–60 ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑chlordane (24–0.97 ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑PCDFs (0.3–0.1 ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw) > ∑PCDDs (0.06–0.05 ng.g<sup>−1</sup>lw). The T-Hg concentrations were highly variable between individuals (2.45 × 10<sup>3</sup> ng.g<sup>−1</sup>to 21.3 × 10<sup>3</sup> ng.g<sup>−1</sup>dry weight, dw). The reported concentrations are among the highest reported for cetaceans. We strongly recommend that the Normanno-Breton Gulf be a special area of conservation (cSAC) candidate because it contains the last large European population of bottlenose dolphins (rare or threatened within a European context) designated under the EC Habitats Directive.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"High pollutant exposure level of the largest European community of bottlenose dolphins in the English Channel","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-23 01:32:57.023213","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2019,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2021-05-17","DateCreate":"2019-09-17","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000485216500001","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1038/s41598-019-48485-7"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":316797,"PubliDate":2019,"Pagination":"10 pp","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"9","Issue":"1","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":208093,"SerRR":"Scientific Reports (Nature Publishing Group).
