Uptake and Clearance of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in the Ringed Seal, Phoca hispida
Ringed seals, Phoca hispida, showed rapid absorption of hydrocarbons from Norman Wells crude oil into body tissues and fluids when exposed by both immersion and ingestion. Relatively low but significant levels were found in tissue, blood, and plasma. Levels in bile and urine were high, indicating th...
