摘要
Samples of surface seawater from marinas in Greece were examined for the presence of tributyltin compounds. Trace concentrations of tributyltin in seawater were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry using preconcentration by extraction into toluene. Seasonal trends in contamination coincided with boat usage patterns and peaked during summer months. The concentrations of organotin compounds in the examined areas are compared with those reported in the literature and are found to be similar to levels in slightly polluted areas. © 1990.
