Aldicarb, aldrin, chlordane, DDT, dieldrin, lindane, mirex, PCBs, and toxaphene are present in all our country's ecosystems, animals, and humans. |

The Tulane team studied such pesticides and industrial chemicals as endosulfan, toxaphene and chlordane. |
|
Pesticides like DDT, aldrin, toxaphene and others are part of a family of chemicals known as Persistent Organic Pollutants. |
|
Organochlorine insecticides include chemicals such as DDT, methoxychlor, heptachlor, chlordane, toxaphene, aldrin, endrin, dieldrin, and lindane. |
|
Those include DDT, dieldrin, toxaphene, heptachlor, and alpha-chlordane. |
|
In the past, farmers have used toxic chemicals such as calcium arsenate, Paris green, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, and toxaphene to rid their cotton crops of insects. |
|
Only DDT and toxaphene were used until 1971 and 1984, respectively, and some old stocks have still remained in Estonia. |
|
The pesticides endosulfan, toxaphene, and dieldrin have estrogenic effects on human estrogen sensitive cells. |
|
The most predominant occurrences were observed for DDT, DDE, DDD, heptachlor, toxaphene and various endrin compounds. |
|
The pollutants are aldrin, chlordane, DDT, dieldrin, dioxins, endrin, furans, heptachlor, hexachlorobenzene, mirex, PCBs and toxaphene. |
|
The study concluded that carcinogens such as PCBs, DDT, chlordane and toxaphene have largely leveled off or have begun declining in Arctic animals after years on the rise. |
|
These are DDT or its breakdown product DDE, Aldrin biphenyls, Dieldrin, Endrin, Chlordane broad spectrum, Heptachlor, Hexachlorobenzene, Mirex, and Toxaphene. |
