“…The only pesticide compound detected exclusively in California otters (Table 2) was TCP methanol. This result is consistent with the potential source of TCP methanol; it is possibly a metabolite of a contaminant in technical DDT [33]. The source of TCP methanol must therefore be associated with DDT use, production, and disposal, all of which were extensive in the California ecosystem [28].…”

“…The possible sources of Tris-OH include synthetic (optically active) high polymers, agrochemicals, and dye production (32). Another study suggested that Tris-OH may also be produced by degradation of Tris-H in the environment, which is thought to be a by-product in the manufacture of technical grade DDT (33).…”
