중금속은 해수에서보다 해수중의 생물계에 그 농도가 더 높은 것으로 알려져 있으며 수은도 무기형으로 생물계에 존재하다가 생물활동으로 인해 알킬형으로 변한다. food chain이 미량금속 축적의 주통로로 알려져 있으나 그외 몇가지 방법이 제시되고 잇다. 특히 연체동물은 미량금속의 축적현상이 온도, 폭로시간, 시간, 생리적 활동에 다라 상당히 달라진다. 또한 유기알킬 수은이 무기수은보다 비교적 낮은 독성을 나타내지만 후자의 피해도 무시할 수는 없다. 굴(crassostrea virginica)은 염화수은농도가 비교적 낮은 상태에서도 상\ulcorner량의 축적현상을 보여주었다. 두개의 compartment system을 연계적인 상태에서 보면 첫 compartment에서의 초기축적은 가역적이었으나 둘째 Compartment에서 측정된 원실율로 보아 비가역적 축적이상을 확인해 주었다. 뿐만 아니라 미량금속이 아가미와 외부 근육에서 가장 높은 축적률을 보인것은 flow system의 regression moder과 매우 흡사함을 암시하며 농도가 낮은 상태에서의 축적이상에 중요한 의미를 부여하였다.

Plastics of the marine environment are broken gradually down into smaller particles by chemical weathering, called "microplastic". Microplastics absorb organic pollutants that are persistent bioaccumulative substances. If marine animals ingested microplastic added to contaminant, it will lead to a bioaccumation through the food web. It eventually destroy health of marine environment and is harmful to marine top predators including humans. Also, Microplastics can impact marine animals by leaching the endocrine disruptor in microplastic itself as well as playing an adsorbent role of organic pollutants. Persistent and bioaccumulative substances in Korea have been regulated in terms of chemical risk but existing regulations largely have been limited in land-based source management of microplastic. Thus, the harmful impact will be increased whether the microplastics absorbed contaminants. To prevent risk of persistent bioaccumulative substances, this study suggests the following: (1) the strict management of microplastic by designating the hazardous substances, (2) expand the use of biodegradable plastic, (3) the effort for reuse and recycle, (4) the expand of microplastic clean-up programs.

산업사회의 발달로 해양생물이 살아가는 생태계는 지역에 따라 자연적인 정화 능력 이상의 많은 오염물질이 유입되고 있으며, 이는 연안 생태계 내에 살아가는 생물이나 그 생물을 이용하는 사람에게도 많은 악영향을 미치고 있다 (Johnston, 1976). 이러한 중금속의 악영향으로 인하여 중금속에 대한 생물축적을 파악하기 위하여 해양생물을 biomonitor로 활용을 하며, 대형 수생식물, 이매패류, 다모류, 따개비류 및 어류 등을 이용하여 중금속이 생물에 미치는 영향을 연구하고, 환경 평가의 기준으로 이용하고 있다 (Rainbow, 1995).

Concentrations of Chromium(Cr) and Manganese(Mn) in several kinds of dewatered organic sewage sludges generated from wastewater treatment plants of Pocheon City, Gyeongii Province were examined. In addition, bioaccumulations of Cr and Mn in the body of earthworm Eisenia fetida were also investigated by changing of feed sludge amounts. Cr and Mn concentrations in sludges were in the range of 0.0~0.3 mg/kg and 3.6~17.6 mg/kg, respectively, which would not cause acute toxicities to earthworm population. Cr was bioaccumulated in the earthworm body but bioaccumulation was not proportional to the amount of sludges supplied. The degree of bioaccumulation of Cr decreased in later phase as the supplied amounts of sludges increased. Meanwhile, there were rare bioaccumulation with regard to Mn. In this study, the value ranges of bioaccumulation factor (BAF) for Mn were 0.00~0.12 when 60g of sludges was supplied. In the case of Cr, the value of BAF was 19.33 when 60g of human manure sludge was provided.

Population of small mammals (Apodemus agrarius and Crocidura lasiura) was monitored to identify the bioaccumulation of heavy metals in Gumho river basin around Daegu city. The small mammals were captured during 28 of May~12 of June, 2002. The techniques of live-trapping and snap-trapping were applied to capture the animals. A total of 39 animals were captured among which 53.3% (16130) of population were reached to breeding. Heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd) were analyzed. According to the analysis of heavy metal elements, Zn was more accumulated in kidney (6.83 mg $kg^{-1}$) than in liver (3.66). However, the accumulation of Cu was higher in liver than in kidney. Even though this site was relatively away from major industrial zones, heavy metals were wide spread along the stream of Gumbo River. This is the first quantitative study of small mammal bioaccumulation of heavy metals in Korea so that further research should be followed in other industrial areas that heavy metals were widely dispersed.

해저퇴적물은 수생생물들의 주거공간을 제공하여 수생생태계에서 중요한 역할을 담당한다. 그러나 오염된 해저퇴적물은 수계에서 축적되는 양보다 퇴적물에서 수계로 용출되는 양이 많아 수계의 오염을 가중시키는 가장 끈 원인이 된다. 오염도가 높은 퇴적물에서는 특정종의 서식을 불가능하게 하거나 서식이 가능하다 할지라도 서식생물의 체내에 오염물이 농축되어 이는 먹이사슬을 통하여 수중서식생물들에게 축적되게 되어 궁극적으로 인간들에게도 나쁜 영향을 미치게 된다. (중략)

A laboratory microcosm experiment was conducted to evaluate a major metal uptake route as well as chronic toxic effects of the clam, Macoma balthica exposed to Ag and Cu contaminated sediments. Twenty five clams were exposed to the sediments contaminated with four levels of Ag $Ag(0.01-0.87\mu{mol}\;g^{-1})$ and $Cu(0.75-5.55\mu{mol\;g^{-1})$ for 90 days. AVS (acid volatile sulfide) concentration in the sediments, considered as major factor controlling metal geochemistry and bioavailability, was manipulated to evaluate its effects on Ag and Cu bioaccumulation in M. balthica. Following 90-d exposure, the tissue Ag and Cu in M. balthica increased linearly with the Ag and Cu concentrations in sediments extracted with 1 N HCI (SEM, simultaneously extracted metals with AVS). The bioaccumulation of Ag and Cu in M. balthica was little influenced by difference in [SEM] - [AVS] values, suggesting a minor contribution of pore water metals to bioaccumulation. Tissue Ag and Cu concentrations directly influenced on the clearance rate and glycogen content of the clams. The clams with highest tissue Ag $(1.0\pm{0.2}\mu{mol}\;g^{-1})$ and Cu concentrations $(2.7\pm{0.3}\;\mu{mol}\;g^{-1})$ had only 18-43% of clearance of the clams exposed to uncontaminated sediments. Similarly, glycogen content of the exposed clams had a inverse relationship with tissue Ag and Cu concentrations. These results suggest that M. balthica exposed to Ag and Cu contaminated sediments accumulates metals largely by ingestion of contaminated sediments and can display chronic effects as reduced clearance rate and glycogen content.

식물은 생육에 필요한 특정양분의 요구도가 환경요인, 품종 및 생육단계에 따라 좌우된다. 양액내 특정양분의 부족과 축적은 NFT같은 순환식 재배시스템에서 많은 문제점으로 나타나고 있는데 이는 식물생육이 주로 근권내 EC 조절에 의존하기 때문이다. 일반적으로 Ca, Mg, SO$_4$, Cl, Na, HCO$_3$$^{-}$등이 축적되기 쉬워 대규모 엽채류 재배농가와 식물공장에서 작물생육에 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. (중략)
