Abstract

Measured partition coefficients (KL(M/L)) related to lipid- concentrations between the muscle (C(M/L)) and liver (C(LL)) tissue of two fish species (Abramis brama, Zoarces viviparus) exhibit nominal values of unity according the relationship KL(M/L) = C(ML)/C(LL) = 1 for persistent compounds such as highly chlorinated PCB and values above one for degradable compounds for example chlorinated cyclohexanes or DDT. The corresponding theory is presented. The relationship holds for samples for single fish as well as for pooled samples.
