Abstract
Premature labour and abortion possibly due to the high concentration of organochlorine pesticides have been investigated. Considerably higher amounts of organochlorine pesticide residues have been detected by gas liquid chromatography in the circulating blood and placental tissue of the women undergoing abortion or premature labour as compared with pregnant women in full term labour. The differences are highly significant for all pesticides estimated.Entities:
