CDDs were determined in pooled samples of ringed seal (Phoca hispida) blubber, beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) blubber, and polar bear (Ursus maritimus) liver and fat collected from several areas throughout the Canadian north (Norstrom et al. 1990). All seal samples and all but one polar bear sample had detectable levels of 2,3,7,8-TCDD (wet weight) ranging from 2 to 37 ppt, but 2,3,7,8-TCDD... [Pg.488]
