In order to assess the trend in the body load of organochlorine pesticide residues in Great Britain, between July 1965 and June 1967 samples of fat were taken during routine necropsies on 247 subjects over 3 years old and on 44 stillborn or premature babies and infants below the age of 3. The levels of the three main pesticides, B.H.C., dieldrin, and D.D.T., were lower than those found in an earlier survey carried out in 1963 and 1964. No marked differences were observed in levels throughout Britain, but the levels in man were higher than those in women. Britain compares favourably with other countries in which similar surveys have been done.
为评估1965年7月至1967年6月期间英国有机氯农药残留的身体负荷趋势，在为期3年的时间里，从247名3岁以上的受试者以及44名死产儿或3岁以下的早产婴儿和幼儿的常规尸检中采集了脂肪样本。三种主要农药，即六六六、狄氏剂和滴滴涕的含量低于1963年和1964年早期调查中发现的含量。在英国各地未观察到明显差异，但男性体内的含量高于女性。与其他进行过类似调查的国家相比，英国的情况较好。
