A review of organotin contamination in arctic and subarctic regions

Emerging Contaminants, 2019
Organotin (OT) compounds are of continued Arctic concern as they are still widely used despite the most well-studied OT, tributyl tin (TBT), being restricted from use on marine vessels to prevent fouling by marine organisms. The highest OT concentrations
