Study aim: "The objective of this study was to better understand the bioaccumulation potential of organochlorine contaminants of varying K ow into L. variegatus exposed to sediments containing very high TOC. We used sediments from the north shore of Lake Apopka (Florida, USA) because these sediments have very high TOC, reported previously as 36 % (w/w)."
