Abstract
Simple steam distillation was found to be efficacious for isolation of hydrocarbons from contaminated whitefish. Gas–liquid chromatography on support-coated open-tubular Apiezon-L columns demonstrated that hydrocarbons recovered from the tainted fish had a composition pattern qualitatively similar in detail to that from a sample of diesel oil suspected as the source of contamination.Keywords
