The uptake and accumulation of waterborne 4-MBC, BP-4 and OC was very rapid, and after only 24 h of exposure to 1 μg L−1, the tissular concentrations were 418, 263 and 327 μg kg−1d.w., respectively. The kinetics of bioaccumulation of BP-4 and OC significantly fitted to an asymptotic model with BCF values of 905 L kg−1 and 2210 L kg−1, respectively. Measured bioaccumulation of the hydrophilic chemical BP-4 was much higher than predicted by Kow-based bioconcentration models, which would lead to a marked underestimation of actual risk. On the other hand, the patterns of uptake found for BP-3 and OD-PABA suggest biotransformation ability of mussels for these two chemicals PB Elsevier SN 0045-6535 YR 2017 FD 2017-09-29 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/17858 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/17858 LA eng NO L.
