Introduction A significant portion of dioxins accumulated in surface aquatic sediment in Japan was indicated to have originated from agrochemicals, especially pentachlorophenol (PCP) and chloronitrofen (CNP). Since these chemicals were used extensively as paddy field herbicides in the past, their present contribution to pollution may be less than that in the past. Thus, it is of interest to estimate their historical contribution to environmental dioxin pollution. In this study, we analyzed dioxins in a dated sediment core taken from Lake Shinji which receives effluent from agricultural land and some local towns. A total of more than 80 gas chromatographic peaks corresponding to individual congeners or groups of congeners were quantified in order to perform a detailed statistical analysis.
