Abstrakt: Presents information on the use of diet information, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) determinations in both lake trout and their prey and bioenergetics modeling to estimate the efficiency of which lake trout retain PCBs from their food. Suggestion that PCBs may pose a health threat to people consuming fish which is contaminated; Indications of the findings.
