Tissue accumulation of DDT and its metabolites in the domestic fowl

Abstract: No clinical toxic effects or loss of condition were seen in any growing hen at any time during a feeding period of 15 weeks on diets containing 10, 50 and 250 p.p.m. of DDT, and no bird developed signs of poisoning during a subsequent partial-starvation period of 3 weeks. There were no differences between the test groups and controls (without DDT) in respect of food consumption or weight gain.A t the end of the 15-week feeding period, DDT, DDE and TDE (DDD) were found in the tissues in amounts roughly proporti… Show more

“…It is known that o,p'-DDT accumulates to a much lesser extent than its para,para' isomer (Cummings et al, 1966). In the study of Noakes and Benfield (1965), only a few eggs at the beginning of the laying period were analyzed, so we cannot treat their data too seriously.…”

“…Because of the stable and lipophilic nature of many organochlorines (Noakes & Benfield 1965;Ecobichon & Saschenbrecker 1968), they show both environmental persistence (Herman, Garrett & Rudd 1968;Dimond & Sherburne 1969) and 'biological magnification' (Hickey, Keith & Coon 1966). By these mechanisms many species of birds of prey have become highly contaminated with organochlorines.…”
