Recent work has implicated many of the forgotten and\/or unstudied  congeners as neuro-endocrine active and potential developmental  toxicants. This interest has created a need for information regarding  the `non-dioxin-like' PCBs. \u003cem\u003eThe ortho Side of PCBs: Occurrence  and\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eDisposition\u003c\/em\u003e integrates historical information, analytical  interpretations, and global concepts with recent comprehensive residue  reports and public health concerns. This condensed source of extensive  information provides detailed comparisons of comprehensive data in a  consistent format. The data will improve the accuracy of concepts  regarding the occurrence and disposition of the 60-100 (rather  than 6-10) most important congeners. Actual PCB burdens are  shown to deviate from average steady-state profiles through sporadic  exposures to unique mixtures characteristic of individual dietary  sources. The task of accurate hazard characterization and risk  assessment can be overwhelming, especially when sporadic changes are  considered. Models and relationships are suggested to facilitate the  efficient categorization and evaluation of the more important  congeners.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-07-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792385417\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-5057-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 269\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312375091340,"sku":"9780792385417","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792385417.jpg?v=1771524907","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792385417","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
