Abstract: | A quantitative relationship was found to exist between the lipophilicity (n-octanol/water partition coefficient) of pentachlorophenol, dieldrin, hexachlorobenzene, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, Σ DDT, polychlorinated biphenyls, α-, β-, γ- and δ -hexachlorocyclohexane and their bioconcentration factor (BCF) in human adipose tissue. The equations were used to predict the bioconcentration factors of some chlorinated aromatic chemicals. |
