“…-Environ Health Perspect 109(suppl 1): 35-47 (2001 metabolite p,p´-DDE and to a lesser extent the DDT isomer p,p´-DDT are still detected in low amounts in food, especially in fish, meat and dairy products, and root vegetables (26,35,(54)(55)(56)(57)(58)(59). DDT and DDE are stored in human adipose tissue, and levels increase as a function of age (21,60,61). However, the levels of DDE detected in food (26,62) and in blood and adipose tissues of humans in Western countries (21,(62)(63)(64)(65) have been decreasing since the decline of DDT use during the 1960s.…”

“…In view of this, in the developed countries EPA keeps a constant watch on the pesticidal pollution by regular check up and do not hesitate in destroying the large food stocks. Extensive literature in these countries are available on this issue (Heath 1961;Cohen and Oostarbaan 1963;O'Brien 1967O'Brien , 1976Casarette et al 1968;Krauthacker et al 1980;Mercedes and Theil 1986;Anna et al 1988;Alawi et al 1992;Cantor et al 1992;Ferrer et al 1992;Matuo et al 1993;Saddy et al 1993;Swaen et al 1994). However, in Pakistan little work has been done by Mughal and Rehman 1973;Naqvi and Jahan, 1996.…”

“…The meager quantity of such insecticides gradually increase in the body which become the cause of many human diseases like gastric cancer, cytogenetic damage, kidney infections and others (Anna et al 1988;Sandra et al 1992). Chlorinated, organophosphates and carbamates pesticides have also been reported in various human matrices (Saltatas and Gagliardi, 1990;Alwai et al 1992;Ferrer et al 1992;Saad et al 1992).…”

“…En lo que se refiere al p,p'-DDE y al HCB, tal observación puede ser debido a la mayor edad media (62,5 años) que poseen las donantes que DDE indicando el incremento de las concentraciones de residuos de pesticidas con el aumento de la edad de las donantes (Figura 1). Los resultados concuerdan con los obtenidos en investigaciones anteriores [4,16,25]. Sin embargo, para el γ-HCH se ha observado una correlación no significativa entre los niveles en el tejido y la edad, posiblemente debido al hecho que pocas muestras presentaban este compuesto.…”
