New paper in Science of the Total Environment

New paper out! For this one, we (lead by Ana Carolina Pizzochero) investigated how biological parameters and ecological habits influenced contamination by legacy and emerging organic pollutants (including chlorinated and brominated flame retardants, dioxins, and furans) in whitemouth croakers (a.k.a. corvinas, Micropogonas furnieri) from Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. This species is one of the most commercially important species along the Atlantic coast of South America, making its contamination a matter of public health.
