摘要：Introduction. A lot of has been heard about dioxins and dioxins-like compounds. These molecules are typically connectedin public awareness with affairs. The main source of dioxins for humans is food (90% of typical exposition); thus, assessmentof dioxins intake and monitoring of levels of dioxins in food remain an important issue.Objective. The aim of the presented work was checking the reproducibility of the authors’ semi-quantitative food frequencyquestionnaire, focusing on products that may contain dioxins and related compounds among adolescents. The uptakeof these compounds was also assessed using obtained data. For survey purposes, an album of food products from thequestionnaire was constructed.Materials and method. A modified semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire was constructed and distributed twicein a 2-week time span among 55, 15-year-old, students of secondary schools.Results. The correlation coefficient for both declared frequencies and assessed amounts in the case of the majority of fooditems was above 0.70. The average assessed intake of dioxins and related compounds was 1.57pgWHO-TEQ/kg body weightper day, and 1.85 pgWHO-TEQ/kg body weight per day, during test and retest, respectively.Conclusions. The modified semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire is a reproducible tool that can be used foradolescents. Average intake in the analyzed group was lower than the Tolerable Daily Intake, but in contrast to othercountries remains one of the highest intakes in a comparable age group. The main sources of dioxins exposition were fish(38%), and meat products
