“…At the same time, the domination of PCDFs shifted from 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDF to TCDF. The weight average level of chlorination of PCDD/Fs increased from 6.7 to 7.9, indicating a weakened dechlorination effect of PCDD/Fs in the presence of the raw meal ( Zhan et al, 2016a). In I-TEQ units, PCDFs contributed 64% of total toxicity, with 2,3,4,7,8-PeCDF was the largest single contributor, accounting for 39%.…”
