title: [The enzymatic degradation of DDT. 4. Degradation of DDD (dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane)].
abstract: DDD is formed from DDT by reductive dechlorination. After application of DDD to rats the dechlorination product DDMU could be detected only after short exposures in the organs, in high concentrations, however, permanently in the faeces. The distribution of DDD in the organism of the rats is studied.
