title: Organochlorine contaminants in human milk from Slavonia Province, Yugoslavia, 1978.
abstract: Organochlorine residues were determined in human milk samples from an agricultural area of Slavonia, Yugoslavia. Concentrations of pentachlorobenzene, hexachlorobenzene, alpha-, beta-, gamma-isomers of benzene hexachloride, heptachlor, aldrin, DDE, TDE, and DDT were determined by gas chromatography (GC). Confirmation was carried out by computerized GC-mass spectrometry. The most abundant contaminant was p,p'-DDE (range, 42.0-418.5 microgram/kg (ppb)).
