Abstract

A literature review of recent work involving the determination of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (CDD) and dibenzofurans (CDF) in fish and incinerator samples has shown many irregularities and omissions in the reported data. Although some of these result from non-standardized nomenclature and reporting practices and do not affect the overall conclusions reached, in some cases omissions in reporting experimental procedures raise important concerns regarding the validity of data and make comparison of data from different investigations difficult. It is not always necessary or even desirable to report every experimental detail of work performed, however, the ultra-trace determination of CDDs and CDFs in complex environmental samples is still at a stage where omission of key experimental details can affect the interpretation of results.
