1990年,我们评估了圣劳伦斯湾下北岸的204名渔民的生物暴露。由于他们相对大量的海鲜摄入量,这些孤立的社区有很大的血浆浓度的多氯联苯。然而,一个特定的饮食习惯,海鸟蛋消费,与这些水平密切相关。由于鱼类消费可能是造成该地区与缺血性疾病相关的低死亡率的部分原因,因此公共卫生建议仅限于限制海鸟蛋、海洋哺乳动物肝脏和鱼肝脏的消费。
In 1990 we evaluated the biological exposure of 204 fishermen of the Lower North Shore of the St-Lawrence Gulf. Because of their relatively great intake of seafood, these isolated communities have great plasma concentrations of PCBs. However a specific dietary habit, sea-bird egg consumption, was strongly associated with these levels. Because fish consumption is probably partially responsible for the low mortality rate related to ischemic diseases observed in this region, hence public health recommendations were only oriented on the limitation of seabird eggs, marine mammal liver and fish liver consumption.
