Bioaccumulation of organochlorine pesticides from contaminated soil by cattle
TL;DR: Uptake of dieldrin (but not other pesticides present in the soil) was rapid and substantial, and Depuration of the accumulated pesticides was a slow and complex process, requiring a longer period than accumulation.
