Abstract

Surface sediments proceeding from the coast of Dakar (Senegal) were analyzed by Gas chromatography coupled with a Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS) in order to evaluate the contamination of polychlorinated (PCB). After weighing, each mass is placed in a centrifugal tube with 10 ml of acetonitrile solvent solution (ACN) to separate the aqueous phase from the organic phase. The extraction phase with QUECHERS is followed by a purification with DSPE RESTEK salt. This salt is composed of 1.2 g MgSO4 + 400 mg PSA + 400 mg C18 for the separation of analytes. For GC-MS kiln storage, the temperature gradient is maintained from 50 to 330°C for 40 minutes with different slopes. PCB126 displays the lowest detection and quantification limits of 0.000639 and 0.001917 ng/g, respectively. PCB18 has the highest detection and quantification limits, with values of 0.01504 and 0.04512 ng/g, respectively. The result obtained show that the PCB dioxin likes are more important in sediment. The PCB-DL ranged 5.931 (Hann) to 25.752 µg/Kg (Ngor). The PCBi ranged 2.415 (Hann) to 4.284 µg/Kg (Soumbedioune) at the beach of Hann, the concentration of individual PCB ranged 0.007 (PCB118) to 5.073 µg/Kg (PCB167). At Soumbedioune, the individual PCB levels ranged 0.004 (PCB118) to 5.365 µg/Kg (PCB167) and at Ngor, the variation is 0.005 (PCB118) to 12.29 µg/Kg (PCB167). The analysis of principal components shows that two distinct groups which the same contamination profile whose elements have strong correlations 0.992 for PCB189-PCB101 and PCB189-PCB81.
