Dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (DDE) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) are
widespread environmental contaminants that have been postulated to increase the risk of …

Abstract Background Organochlorines, such as 2, 2‐bis (4‐chlorophenyl)‐1, 1‐
dichloroethylene (DDE), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) …

Multivariate methods were used to predict levels of dichlorodiphenyldichloroethene (DDE)
and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) concentrations in plasma from characteristics that …

We examined plasma dichlorodiphenyldichloroethene (DDE) and total polychlorinated
biphenyl (PCB) levels in relation to breast cancer in a population-based, case-control study …

A nested case-control study was conducted to examine the association between serum
concentrations of 1, 1-dichloro-2, 2-bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethylene (DDE), the primary …

Abstract The environmental organochlorines 2, 2‐bis (p‐chlorophenyl) 1, 1, 1,
trichloroethane (DDT) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been implicated as …

We evaluated predictors of plasma concentrations of dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene
(DDE), a metabolite of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), and polychlorinated …

Numerous studies have reported positive associations of environmental exposure to
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and p, p′-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p, p′-DDE) …

A prospective investigation of breast cancer and organochlorine (OC) exposures was
undertaken in the New York University Women's Health Study. Cases (n= 148) and …

Chlorinated hydrocarbons may increase breast cancer risk. Most epidemiological studies
addressing this possibility have used one biological sample to measure a subject's …
