title: [Pentachlorophenol concentrations in the organs and blood of 11 dead infants].
abstract: For 11 children, died on age between 2.5 and 57 month due to different causes, the concentrations of pentachlorophenol in liver, kidney, brain and blood were located in the lower part of the spread of test values found for adults which had died in the same region and during the same time phase. The concentrations of pentachlorophenol in the blood of the 11 children were compared further with the findings from 20 living children with an age up to 10 years and were all located below the median of the test values (45,4 micrograms PCP/1) from the group last mentioned. There are no hints for connections between the body-burden of pentachlorophenol and the death-cases concerning the 11 children.
