Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a free service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are accessible to all readers and citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article. Note that technical editing may introduce minor changes to the manuscript text and/or graphics which could affect content, and all legal disclaimers and ethical guidelines that apply to the journal pertain. ACS cannot be held responsible for errors or consequences arising from the use of information contained in these “Just Accepted” manuscripts.

Abstract: The causal links between species traits and bioaccumulation by marine
28
invertebrates are poorly understood. We assessed these links by measuring and modelling
29
polychlorinated biphenyl bioaccumulation by four marine benthic species. Uniformity of
30
exposure was achieved by testing each species in the same aquarium, separated by
31
enclosures, to ensure that the observed variability in bioaccumulation was due to species
32
traits. The relative importance of chemical uptake from pore water or food (organic matter;
33
OM) ingestion was manipulated by using artificial sediment with different OM contents. Biota
34
sediment accumulation factors (BSAFs) ranged from 5 to 318, in the order Nereis virens
