DOI: 10.1002/etc.5531
Abstract: Polychlorinated dibenzo‐p‐dioxin and polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDD/F) are persistent, toxic, and bioaccumulative. Currently, PCDD/F monitoring programs primarily use fish and birds with potentially large home ranges to monitor temporal trends over broad spatial scales; sentinel organisms… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.apr.2019.02.004
Abstract: Abstract Dioxins, are persistent organic pollutants with endocrine disrupting properties and are classified as human carcinogens. To better characterise historical atmospheric dioxin exposure in epidemiological studies, we performed a comprehensive inventory of dioxin-emitting sources between… read more here.
