Abstrakt: Dieldrin tissue levels in obese and "normal" weight adult male Osborne Mendel rats that had been on weight maintenance or weight reduction diets were compared with levels immediately after dieldrin feeding. Normal weight animals exhibited higher tissue pesticide reductions while very little of the body burden of dieldrin was lost in obese rats. Neither group exhibited any elevation of dieldrin levels in the brain because of tissue mobilization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
