TL;DR: The measured POP levels in the studied tilapia were all below MRLs of EU or were lower than recommended levels, and thus the fish is considered as safe for human consumption, and the presence of BDE-209 indicates increasing influence of imported products from heavy industrialized countries.

TL;DR: The ratios of p,p'-DDE/p,p-DDT in wild milkfish and mullet from Mtwara and Pemba indicate historical use of DDT and in contrast, ratios in farmed milkfish from Unguja and MTwara, suggest recent use.

TL;DR: The Pb concentrations exceeding ML in the fish suggests that Pb may affect the health of fish, and future investigations should include regular monitoring of heavy metals in farmed and wild fish in Tanzania for further development of sustainable aquaculture and the welfare of the wild fish stock in the coastal waters.

TL;DR: Combined proteomics and lipidomics analyses indicate that PFAS may disrupt lipid homeostasis in Atlantic cod.

TL;DR: The bay of Kollevåg did not fullfill adequate environmental condition based on environmental quality standards (EQSs) for chemicals in coastal waters, and effects were observed on biomarker responses, especially those involved in reproductive processes in cod ovary.
