Bioaccumulation of alkyllead compounds from water and from contaminated sediments from mussels / by Y.K. Chau, P.T.S. Wong, G.A. Bengert and J. Wasslen.: En13-5/88-18E-PDF

"Chemicals in the environment may be accumulated by living organisms to a very high level. The measurement of bioaccumulation can often be used to assess the potential impact of a chemical on the food chain. Since sediment is the ultimate storage for polluants, the availability of these compounds could pose a severe threat to the ecosystem"--Abstract, page 1.
