Overview on environmental fate of chlorinated dioxins and dibenzofurans. Sources, levels and isomeric pattern in various matrices

TL;DR: In this paper, background levels of polychlorinated dioxins and dibenzofurans have been identified in technical products and pesticides, most of which are not very widely used today.

Soft tissue sarcoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in relation to phenoxyherbicide and chlorinated phenol exposure in Western Washington

TL;DR: A case-control study was conducted in western Washington State to evaluate the relationship between occupational exposure of men aged 20-79 to phenoxyacetic acid herbicides and chlorinated phenols and the risks of developing soft tissue sarcoma (STS) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) as mentioned in this paper.

Polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs), polychlorodibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorodibenzofurans (PCDFs) in human milk, blood and adipose tissue

TL;DR: The relatively high levels in breast milk result in very high daily intakes of such chemicals by breast-fed infants, and a potential hazard to this risk group.

Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin quantitation in stack-collected coal fly ash

BJ Kimble, +1 more
- 04 Jan 1980 - 
TL;DR: Gas chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry has been used to quantitate tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin in fly ash collected from the stack of a typical coal-fired power plant, indicating that this type of fossil-fueled power plant is not a large source of this compound in environmental samples, in contrast to the conclusions presented in a recent industrial report.
