Abstract in Portuguese
Os poluentes orgânicos persistentes (POPs) são acumulados em tecidos gordurosos dos organismos vivos em concentrações relativamente altas em animais do topo da cadeia alimentar, como os golfinhos. Os objetivos deste trabalho foram avaliar a distribuição e acumulação de POPs em tecidos (gordura, fígado, rim e músculo) de toninhas (Pontoporia blainvillei) do litoral sul de São Paulo, bem como as diferenças/similaridades entre gênero e maturidade sexual e a transferência via placenta. Os valores de concentração mediana (ng g-1; peso úmido) para as 16 amostras de gordura, fígado, rim e músculo, respectivamente, foram: PCBs (987; 19,2; 5,08; 4,41); DDTs (550; 10,3; 2,67; 1,89); PBDEs (32,7; 0,230; 0,095; 0,050); Mirex (21,5; 0,457; 0,168; 0,083); HCB (15,4; <0,360; <0,360; <0,144); HCHs (<0,870; 2,20; <0,218; <0,087); Clordanas (<1,45; <0,362; <0,362; <0,145). Os machos jovens apresentaram as maiores concentrações dos POPs, seguidos pelos machos adultos, fêmeas jovens, fêmeas adultas e fetos. Foi observada transferência dos contaminantes das fêmeas gestantes para seus fetos entre 14 a 28% para PCBs e 19 a 45% para DDTs. A gordura apresentou correlação significativa com os demais tecidos estudados para acumulação dos PCBs, DDTs e PBDEs sugerindo a sua representatividade para estudos desses POPs em toninhas.

Abstract in English
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are accumulated in fatty tissues of organisms in relatively high concentrations in animals in high position of the food chain such as dolphins. The aims of this study were to evaluate the distribution and accumulation of POPs in tissues (blubber, liver, kidney and muscle) of franciscana dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) collected on the southern coast of São Paulo as well as differences/similarities between genre and sexual maturity and the transplacental transfer. The values of median concentration (ng g-1; wet weight) for 16 samples of blubber, liver, kidney and muscle, respectively, were: PCBs (987; 19,2; 5,08; 4,41); DDTs (550; 10,3; 2,67; 1,89); PBDEs (32,7; 0,230; 0,095; 0,050); Mirex (21,5; 0,457; 0,168; 0,083); HCB (15,4; <0,360; <0,360; <0,144); HCHs (<0,870; 2,20; <0,218; <0,087); Chlordanes (<1,45; <0,362; <0,362; <0,145). POPs concentrations were higher in young males followed by adult males, young females, adult females and fetuses. Maternal transfer of POPs to the fetuses was between 14 to 28% for PCBs and 19 to 45% for DDTs. Blubber showed a significant correlation with the other tissues studied for PCBs, DDTs and PBDEs suggesting its representativeness for evaluation of these POPs in franciscana dolphin.
