Storage of organochlorine pesticides in human adipose tissues of Jordanian males and females.

M A Alawi1, S Tamimi, M Jaghabir.   

Abstract

Adipose tissue of 50 human patients (5-96, years old) were taken and analysed by gas chromatography equipped with electron capture detector (63Ni) for determination of storage levels of HCH's (alpha, beta, and gamma-hexachlorcyclohexanes), DDT and its metabolites DDE and DDD, the cyclodiens (heptachlor, heptachlorepoxide, dieldrin, aldrin and endrin) and HCB (hexachlorbenzene). The data is reported according to age groups and sexes. The results show relatively moderate concentrations of all studied pesticides and that Jordanian men are more exposed to DDT and HCH's than women.
