Dioxin, dl-PCB and PBDE exposure

	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)
