Bioconcentration potential (BCP) of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzop-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD) in terrestrial organisms including humans.
Chemosphere 15, 1495-1502 (1986)
The bioconcentration factors (BCFs) of 2,3,7,8-TCDD in adipose tissue of rats, beef cattle and monkeys have been calculated. The bioconcentration potential of TCDD in man was calculated by two indirect methods: 1) from daily intake of TCDD and its measured concentrations in adipose tissues and 2) from measured half-life and measured concentrations in body fat at steady state using a linear one compartment pharmacokinetic model. The BCFs in humans calculated by both methods are between 104 and 206, or 153, respectively.
