Outline of Research at the Start

海洋食物網を構成する低次-高次栄養段階生物を対象に、二次元ガスクロマトグラフ-高分解能飛行時間型質量分析計 (GCxGC-HRToFMS) 及びガスクロマトグラフ-高分解能二重収束型質量分析計 (GC-HRMS) を駆使したスクリーニング分析を実施することで、多様な有機ハロゲン化合物 (人工化学物質、海洋天然物質、構造・起源未知物質) の残留濃度や組成プロファイルの種差、そして生物濃縮機構の解明を試みる。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

The present study performed target/nontarget screening of marine pollutants in the environment and biota from Seto Inland Sea, Japan. The results of screening analyses revealed the bioaccumulation of various organohalogen compounds such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs), marine natural products, and structurally unknown compounds. Notably, several organochlorine compounds, identified as synthetic by-products or environmental/biological transformation products of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and chlordane (CHL), were found to accumulate in not only marine fish but also fish-eating birds. The results indicate chronic exposure of marine biota to these compounds, and their biomagnification potential in the marine food web.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究では、多次元クロマトグラフィーと精密質量分析を統合した分離計測技術を精緻化し、環境・生物汚染モニタリングに適用した結果、法的な監視や規制が及んでいない潜在的な有害物質群の検出に成功した。この成果は、応用計測科学や自然科学分野における研究の発展のみならず、自然環境や野生生物種の保全、そして化学物質の適正なリスク管理に資する有用な情報となり得る。
