Agent Orange Footprint Still Visible in Rural Areas of Central Vietnam
Original language description
Levels of polychlorinated dioxins/furans (PCDD/PCDF) in selected environmental samples (soils, sediments, fish, and farm animals) were analyzed fromthe area of PhongMy commune (Thua Thien-Hue province,Vietnam).This area was affected by Agent Orange spraying during the Vietnamwar (1968?1971).Whereas PCDD/PCDF content in soil and sediment samples is relatively low and ranges between 0.05 and 5.1 pgWHO-TEQ/g for soils and between 0.7 and 6.4 pgWHO-TEQ/g for sediments, thePCDD/PCDF content in poultry muscleand liver in most cases exceeded the maximum permissible limit of dioxin content per unit fat mass. In some cases of soil and sediments samples, 2,3,7,8-TCDD represented more than 90% of the total PCDD/PCDF, which indicates Agent Orange as the main source.
