Conclusions 1. Less than 18% of the pp'DDT and pp'DDE found in human blood is carried in the erythrocytes, while dieldrin is distributed between RBC and plasma roughly in proportion to volume. 2. In non-lactescent sera, chylomicra carry less than 1% of the total pesticide. Protein-free serum is virtually devoid of pesticide. 3. pp'DDT and pp'DDE are found in relation to lipoproteins of various densities, but principally in the triglyceride-rich low-density and very-low-density lipoproteins. 4. The plasma albumin, and secondarily the smaller globulins are the principal plasma protein constituents associated with blood-borne pp'DDT and pp'DDE.
