Levels of DDT and PCB Compounds in North Atlantic Fin-back Whales

DDT and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) compounds were found in blubber tissue samples of 12 North American fin-back whales collected in 1970 and 1971. Concentrations of DDT and metabolites ranged up to 2.557 ppm, while the highest PCB concentration was 0.185 ppm Gas chromatographic results were conf...
