Abstract: | This paper uses an environmental partitioning model to evaluate the concentration of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in various environmental media. These concentrations are then used to estimate the amount of TCDD entering the food chain and the average daily intake of TCDD by the general population of the US. The food chain accounts for 98% of human exposure to TCDD. The model estimated the average daily intake of TCDD to be 0.05 ng/day. |
