Popis: Monkeys exposed to maternal TCDD in utero and for four months of nursing were biopsied for mesenteric fat at 4, 12 and 24 months of age. By assay, the TCDD in fat declined approximately first order at a mean half-life of 121 days, and at a half-life of ∼181 days when adjusted for body growth and percent body fat.
