Resumo:
The organotin compounds such as tributyltin (TBT) present in anti-fouling paints applied to ships, pleasure boats and vessels are proved to have harmful effects on the reproduction and the growth of several forms of marine life. In response to this environmental threat many countries introduced restriction to their use or even banishment. In Brazil there are no such rules on the use of these compounds. The present work aimed at the speciation of organotin compounds (tributyltin (TBT) and its of degradation products, dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT)) in surface layer of sediments collected from 15 stations in the Todos os Santos Bay. The selection of stations was based on information on ship traffic, presence of marinas and industries installation. Organotin speciation was carried out by gas chromatography with pulsed flame photometric detection after solvent extraction, derivatization, clean-up and sulfur elimination. The highest organotin concentrations (ng g -1 as tin) found were: TBT (15,9), DBT (28,8) e MBT (4). Sediments in the studied locations are slightly contaminated, according to the classification reported by Waite and collaborators (1991). Values are lower than those found in Guanabara Bay (Almeida et al., 2004) possibly due to the higher water transparence that favors photo degradation, and to the oxidizing sedimentary environment.
