PCDDs, PCDFs, PCBs, and Other Organochlorine Compounds in Human Milk from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The levels of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and -furans (PCDFs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and other organochlorine compounds were determined in a pooled sample of breast milk from 40 mothers (first lactation: 33; second lactation: 7, age: 15–38 years) living in the urban area of...

description The levels of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and -furans (PCDFs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and other organochlorine compounds were determined in a pooled sample of breast milk from 40 mothers (first lactation: 33; second lactation: 7, age: 15–38 years) living in the urban area of Rio de Janeiro County, Brazil, in 1992. Mothers were breast-feeding only one infant and milk was collected between 4 and 6 weeks after delivery. The results showed a dioxin equivalent concentration of 8.1 pg I-TEq/g milk fat. The levels of other chlorinated compounds (micrograms per gram of milk fat) were as follows: PCBs (total), 0.15; α-HCH, 0.001; β-HCH, 0.27;γ-HCH, 0.005; HCB, 0.012; DDT (total), 1.7; dieldrin, 0.023, and cis-heptachlor epoxide, 0.008. These results suggest that human background contamination by PCDD/Fs, PCBs, and HCB in Rio de Janeiro is lower than that generally found in industrialized countries.
