Abstract

Abstract To study the long-term environmental pollution in Jordan, thirty two adipose tissue samples were analysed for 15 Organochlorine Compounds using the capillary GC-ECD. The results were discussed in terms of clinical aspects and in terms of environmental and hygienic effects. To explain the sources of pollution, the major fat-containing food stuffs usually used in Jordan were analysed. It has been found that most of the imported foods are contaminated, especially with heptachlor and heptachlorepoxide.
