Inter-Specific Variation in Polychlorinated Biphenyi (PCB) Methyl Sulphone Metabolite Formation in Cetaceans - Preliminary Observations

PCB Methyl sulphones (MeSQ2-CB) are persistent metabolites of PCBs and can be found in cetacean blubber and liver. MeSQ2-CBs can bind intracellular receptors in utems and lung ' , potentially causing adverse effects on embryo implantation / viability during the early gestation period . They hav...
