摘要: Abstract Accidental spillage of oil in to the sea from shipping transport and drilling rigs results spills that cause significant unsustainable mortality wildlife destroys marine ecosystem services. External oiling seabirds causes large scale within days following a spill, while survivors suffercauses long term chronic effects exposure toxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) present ingested oil. Survival rates for rehabilitated oiled birds are very low despite investment resources. PAHs disturb thyroid homeostasis which plays vital role control energy metabolism. In this study, plasma PAH thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) were quantified as biomarkers endocrine disruption guillemots (Uria aalge). Mean TSH concentrations, 98.1 ± 8.3 ng/ml 0.13 ± 0.02 ng/ml these parameters found be negatively correlated (p
