Abstract
The article presents findings of selected organochlorine residues for surveys conducted on human adipose tissue during fiscal years 1970, 1971, and 1972. The residues selected for presentation in this paper were beta-benzene hexachloride, total DDT equivalent, dieldrin, heptachlor epoxide, oxychlordane, and polychlorinated biphenyls. All, except polychlorinated biphenyls, are representative of exposure to organochlorine insecticides; residues of polychlorinated biphenyls are indicative of exposure to that industrial contaminant.
