Capelin Mallotus villosus samples were collected in 2002 at two locations in the Barents Sea, and concentrations of PAHs were measured in bile samples using fixed-wavelength fluorescence analysis. To precisely interpret the fluorescence level, the bile pigment, biliverdin, was measured, which provid...
