Abstract | Applications of organotin-based antifouling paints in hulls of sea-going vessels have introduced large amount of these compounds, in particular tributyltin (TBT) and triphenyltin (TPT), into the ocean since the 1960s. These endocrine disrupting compounds have threatened a wide range of marine organisms, including fishes and marine mammals. In spite of the global prohibition of the use of organotins in antifouling paints by the International Maritime Organization in September 2008, there are no restrictions on their production and usage in Mainland China and Hong Kong and thus high concentrations of organotins, especially TPT, are still detected in marine fishes and ... |
