Abstract
This dataset contains hepatobiliary concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in gafftopsail catfish (Bagre marinus) collected aboard multiple research and fishing vessels (R/V Weatherbird II, NCF, FSU, Texas A&M, MSU, GCRL) in the Gulf of Mexico in September 2015, and April to September 2017. Untreated bile PAHs were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection (HPLC-F) methodology. Liver PAHs were extracted from homogenized liver tissues using QuEChERS EMR (Agilent Technologies, Bond Elut) and confirmed and quantified using an Agilent’s 7890B gas chromatograph (GC) coupled to a 7010 tandem mass spectrometer (MS/MS) operating in multiple reactions mode (MRM). The dataset includes the date, location of sampling collection sites, and concentration of various hepatobiliary concentrations of PAHs in liver tissue. The related data (biliary PAHs in concentrations in gafftopsail catfish) collected during R/V Weatherbird II cruise WB1603 on 2015-09-21 is available under GRIIDC Unique Dataset Identifier (UDI): R6.x805.000:0048 (DOI: 10.7266/N7X34W1J).
Purpose
Data were collected as part of the C-IMAGE Gulf-wide surveys (2015) and a separate independent study (2017) in order to characterize the impacts of oil exposure in gafftopsail catfish.
