title: Levels of aldrin and dieldrin in environmental samples from Delhi, India.
abstract: Aldrin and dieldrin residues in soil, earthworms, water, fish and clams from different sites in Delhi were monitored. Concentrations of aldrin and dieldrin were found to be higher in earthworms than in soil. Concentrations of dieldrin were higher in fish than the ambient water, but the concentration of aldrin in the ambient water was the same as that in fish and clams.
