Metabolism of Single and Combined Doses of 14 C-Aldrin and 3 H- p , p ′-DDT by Atlantic Salmon ( Salmo salar ) Fry
Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fry were injected intramuscularly with 3 H-p,p′-DDT and 14 C-aldrin either alone or as a mixture at concentrations similar to those found in "naturally" contaminated fish; their rates of metabolism and clearance were then compared 3 H-p,p′-DDT was cleared slow...
