Description

First restrictions to organochlorine insecticides (OC) in Brazil date of 1976 and by 1985 they were completely prohibited. However use of existing stocks and smuggled parcels as well as official use in malaria campaigns still takes place. During the SH summer of 1995 a cross-sectional survey was conducted for organochloride pesticides in 12 intertidal sites, both in sediments and in some selected edible species of the All Saints Bay, east of Brazil
