“…Although the exact threshold for the endocrine modulatory action of POPs remains unclear, it has been shown that PCBs and p , p ′-DDE are able to cross the placental barrier. 28 The high percentage of PCB and p , p ′-DDE concentrations above the certified reference concentration in maternal sera from our cohort strongly suggests that both the mothers and their unborn children were exposed to potentially harmful concentrations of POPs, and that our study is, therefore, useful in determining potential adverse effects of POPs.…”

“…Current results showed more exposed to 2,4-DDE and 2,4-DDT was associated with higher education levels. Junque et al observed a positive correlation between social class and education level with 4,4-DDE levels in maternal venous blood collected in the rst trimester and cord blood (29). This nding is acceptable because higher education can increase knowledge and lead to a desire for healthy diet includes fruits, vegetables.…”

“…On the other hand, the levels at delivery were 0.005 ng/mL for PCB-52, 0.001 ng/mL for PCB-101, 0.06 ng/mL for PCB-138, 0.21 ng/mL for PCB-153 and 0.13 ng/mL for PCB-180. In cord serum, the levels of PCB-52, -101, -138, -153 and -180 were 0.01, 0.001, 0.033 and 0.011 ng/mL, respectively (45).…”
