PCDD/Fs in soil samples collected in the vicinity of a municipal solid waste incinerator: human health risks.

abstract：:Fish from western Lake Superior (1972-73) contained DDT and PCB residues at concentrations greater than o.1 ppm. The most predominant PCB's were those containing 3 to 6 chlorine atoms per molecule, and GLC data indicated that the mixtures were most like the commercial product Aroclor 1254(2). Other chlorinated contimi...
