title: [The interim report on survey of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans in marine products and estimation of exposure through fishes and shellfishes].
abstract: Survey of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans has been carried out for four years starting from 1992 to 1995, which showed that about 25% or more of marine products are contaminated by trace amount of dioxins and related compounds. But intake of dioxins and related compounds through fishes and shellfishes was below 5 pg/kg/d. Further monitoring is indispensable.
