    Notes: Summary Quantitative and qualitative examination of Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) residues in blood of the women occupationally exposed to PCBs and of their children has been carried out. The children examined in this study have ingested their mothers' milk for periods of 0 to 3 years. The age of the children at the time of this study ranges from 0 to 13 years. The data obtained in this examination provide evidence that PCBs are retained in the children's body for many years and a longer feeding of mothers' milk tends to increase PCB levels in the blood of the children. Especially high PCB levels, 93.2 ppb (μg/kg) and 77.4 ppb are found in the blood of two children. It is found that the gas chromatographic patterns of blood PCBs of the children who have been fed on their mothers' milk for a long time, are different from those of their mothers.
