“…Considering the contribution of each single congener to the sum of six indicators, PCBs 28 and 52 were the predominance congeners accounting for 17-49% and 17-25% of total ndl-PCBs, followed by PCBs 138, 153, and 101 which accounted for 10-24%, 8-21%, and 9-17% of total ndl-PCBs, respectively (Table 4). Such kind of ndl-PCBs profile was different from those of PCBs 153 and 138 as predominant ndl-PCBs reported in many literatures (EFSA, 2010;Barone et al, 2014;Mihats et al, 2015;Storelli et al, 2011).…”

“…In addition to the concentrations measured in meat and its products, it is also necessary to calculate TDI. TDI for 6PCBs at 10 ng/kg bw (0.01 µg/kg bw) [45][46][47]. The calculation for a 70 kg man is the following: daily intake of Σ6PCBs (ng/kgbw) = conc.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the concentration of 19 organochlorine pesticides (OCPs): (hexachlorocyclohexane (α-HCH, β-HCH, δ–HCH), lindane, aldrin, heptachlor, heptachlor epoxide, trans-chlordane, cis-chlordane, endosulfane I, endosulfane II, endosulfane sulfate, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE), dieldrin, endrin, dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (DDD), methoxychlor and endrin ketone and 6 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) (PCB 28, PCB 52, PCB 101, PCB 153, PCB 138 and PCB 180). The samples were taken from pancetta, dry pork neck (budiola), pork tenderloin and sausages produced in Rakitno (Bosnia and Herzegovina), smoked in both a traditional smokehouse and in an industrial chamber. Instrumental analysis was performed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The reliability of the results, i.e., quality control is ensured by standard laboratory practice, which involves participation in proficiency test, the use of blank samples, reference materials and implementation of recommendations given by the relevant international organizations. The concentrations of α-HCH, lindane, PCB 28, PCB 52 and PCB 153 were detected and quantified. The concentrations of OCPs and PCBs did not significantly vary depending on product type and the conditions of production. All the examined samples were for human consumption.

“…An analogous contribution pattern has been observed in earlier dietary intake studies carried out in Italy [14] and in other European countries such as France [30], Spain [31], and Germany [32]. Exceptions have been encountered for the Belgian adult population where dairy products and fishery products contribute almost equally to the total dietary exposure to the iPCBs [33] and in the Austrian adult population with milk and dairy products being the major contributing food group to the total dietary intake of ndl-PCBs (50-55%) followed by the seafood and meat group [34]. Table 5 illustrates the comparison among iPCBs estimates of dietary exposure in Europe, as described in the literature.…”

The levels of non-dioxin-like PCB indicators (iPCBs 28, 52, 101, 138, 153, and 180) were determined in food samples (seafood, meat and processed meat, milk and dairy products, hen eggs, olive oil, and other fats) to evaluate the exposure of adult and elderly population. iPCB levels in samples were in the following order: fishery products > meat and processed meat > milk and dairy products > olive oil and other fats. None of the samples had concentrations above the maximum permissible limits for human consumption established by the European Union legislation, except for salami samples. The dietary intake for the total population was 12.33 ng·kg−1 bw·d−1, while depending on the sex/age groups, exposure was estimated between 9.60 and 12.11 ng·kg−1 bw·d−1, with seafood being the major contributor. The exposure scenario indicates that further efforts must still be carried out to protect the consumer from these harmful chemicals.
