Abstract
⺠We report concentrations and accumulation patterns of BTs in Korean cetaceans. ⺠DBT was predominant in the livers of minke whales and common dolphins. ⺠Significant differences in BT concentrations between the two species were found. ⺠The BT accumulation in minke whales was correlated with increased body length. ⺠The concentrations of BTs exceeded the threshold value for cytotoxic effects.
