摘要：In México more than 270 active ingredients of pesticides used in agriculture, sanitation and industry are permitted. Among the organochlorine pesticides the most important, due to their properties of biomagnification in the food chain, are DDT and Lindane. From 1988 to 1998 a total of 326 samples of human adipose tissue were analysed. A significant contamination with DDT and its metabolite (DDE) was observed during the study period, reaching the maximum mean values of 6.67 mg/kg and 18.91 mg/kg on fat basis, respectively. This contamination may be caused by the aspiration of DDT vapors used in sanitary actions against malary and by the consumption of contaminated food of animal origin.
