“…Our studies support previous findings that the most toxic dioxin isomer, 2,3,7,8-TCDD, is not recovered in ambient air (Christmann et al, 1989;Edgerton et al, 1989;Hunt and Maisel, 1990;Rappe et al, 1989). Other researchers have used high-volume air samplers that collect hundreds or thousands of cubic meters of air to quartz microfiber filters (particulates) and polyurethane foam (PUF, vapor phase) (Table 4).…”

“…Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs) are distributed worldwide (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16). In the Great Lakes region, PCDDs and PCDFs have been identified in sediments (17), air (18,19), water (8), fish (20)(21)(22), reptiles (23,24), birds (20,(25)(26)(27), and mammals (28). Few studies, however, have investigated long-term temporal changes in levels of these compounds in Great Lakes biota or examined large-scale geographic differences in PCDD/PCDF contamination in biota from this region.…”

“…Comparisons between congener profiles in atmospheric samples and their possible sources have been carried out previously (3,(9)(10)(11). Both similarities and differences in congener profiles between atmospheric samples and combustion sources have been reported.…”
