Abstract:
The paper deals with the contamination of human milk with chlorinated phenols. The average and median concentrations of the chlorophenols investigated ranged from 0.75 to 9.74 micrograms.kg-1 and from being not detectable to 5.62 micrograms.kg-1, respectively, for the different compounds. The highest average and median levels were found for pentachlorophenol and 2,4,5-trichlorophenol. The concentrations determined were below the permissible levels.
