Dioxins and dioxin-like PCBs in the ambient air of the Valencian Region (Spain): Levels, human exposure, and risk assessment

Antonio Lopez et al.

Summary: Dioxins and dioxin-like PCBs were measured and risk assessed in the ambient air of the Valencian Community in Spain. The study found specific dioxin profiles at different monitoring stations, with daily inhalation doses below the tolerable daily intake for dioxins in adults and children. Chronic exposure to dioxins and dl-PCBs resulted in estimated cancer risks exceeding 1.0 E-06 in industrial and urban areas.

Determination of organic pollutants in meconium and its relationship with fetal growth. Case control study in Northwestern Spain

Esther Alvarez-Silvares et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the association between organic pollutant levels in meconium and birth weight in NW Spain. The results showed that organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, and polybrominated diphenyl ethers were detected with the highest levels in meconium from small for gestational age newborns. However, organophosphorus pesticides attained higher concentrations in newborns with an appropriate weight.
