Study aim: "The current study investigates siloxanes concentration in surface seawater, sediment, and fish in the marine environment of the northern Chinese sea. The objectives of this study are (i) to determine the pollution levels and potential sources of siloxanes, (ii) to study differences in abundances and compositions of siloxane among different media in marine environment, and (iii) to assess the bioaccumulation of these siloxanes."
