Mean | Range | Standard deviation | 95% confidence interval | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Prenatal dioxin (PCDD/F) exposure ITEQ (pg/g lipid in breastmilk), n=32 | 32.6 | 9.05-88.8 | 64.3 | 25.9-38.5 |
Lactational dioxin (PCDD/F) exposure ITEQ (absolute quantity in ng), n=32 | 66.5 | 4.34-279 | 64.3 | 43.3-89.6 |
Current serum dioxin (PCDD/F) WHO-TEQ (pg/g lipid in serum), n=27 | 2.2 | 0.4-6.1 | 1.6 | 1.6-2.8 |
Current serum dl-PCBs WHO-TEQ (pg/g lipid) | 2.2 | 0.04-7.8 | 2.0 | 1.4-3.0 |
Current serum PBDE (ng/g lipid) n=17* | 10.5 | 4.9-22.1 | 4.6 | 8.2-12.9 |
Means, ranges, standard deviation and 95% confidence interval of the exposure to Dioxins, PCBs and PBDE’s.
*Current serum PBDE levels is calculated with exclusion of the outlier (73.6 ng/g lipids)
