N2 - Twenty-seven individual and ten pooled human adipose tissue specimens, collected from persons from the south and north of Vietnam, respectively, were analyzed for 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7,8-TCDF. The results show a mean value of 19 ppt TCDD and 7 ppt TCDF in the samples from persons in the South, and non-detected TCDD and TCDF in the samples from persons from the North. Differences in 2,3,7,8-TCDD body burdens continue to be substantiated in the populations of the south and north of Vietnam.
