Abstract
The DDT and DDE contents of 29 complete prepared meals were determined. Seven meals contained no detectable DDT or DDE. One additional meal did not contain measurable DDT. No DDE was found in two other meals. Comparison of the results of the present study with those of earlier studies indicates that the DDT content of the total diet has decreased between 1953 and 1963.
