Abstract
Samples of adipose tissue from the abdominal cavity were taken at random at surgeries on abdominal cavity /24 samples/ and at necropsy of the deceased /29 samples/ in the early nineteen eighties. The samples were then analyzed for the presence of chlorinated pesticides by means of gas chromatography with electron capture detection. All the analyzed samples contained beta‐BHC, Lindane, HCB, pp'‐DDE and DDT isomers.
