“…Other detected dioxins and dibenzofurans found by us (1,2,3,6,7,8-hexachlorodibenzodioxin, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-heptachlorodibenzodioxin/furan, and OCDD) are also widely detected and are the highest detected congeners in breast milk (Focant et al 2002; Glynn et al 2001; Schaum et al 2003; Schecter et al 2002). Their relative proportions (i.e., OCDD > 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-heptachlorodibenzodioxin > 1,2,3,6,7,8-hexachlorodibenzodioxin) are similar to those among the WTC women in our cohort, even where levels were much higher (Yang et al 2002).…”
