Abstract:
Objective To evaluate serum organochlorine pesticides and residues levels in breast cancer pa-tients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas of Tangshan. Methods 93 patients of breast cancer from seriously earthquake-striken areas and 65 patients from lightly earthquake-striken areas were selected as study subjects,which serum organochlorine pesticides (DDTs and HCHs) levels were detected and compared with gas chromatography/electron capture. Results Serum organochlorine pesticides and residues levels in 158 patients be-tween the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas of Tangshan were not normal distributed. The order of detec-tion rate of HCH isomer in breast cancer patients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas were β-HCH>δ-HCH >α-HCH >γ-HCH. The orders of detection rate of DDT isomer in breast cancer patients between two areas of Tangshan were PP'-DDE > PP'-DDT > OP'-DDT > PP'-DDD. The serum levels of α-HCH,β-HCH, PP'-DDE and PP'-DDD in breast cancer patients between the seriously and lightly earthquake-striken areas were statistically different. Conclusion The levels of organechlorine pesticides and residues in serum with high detection rate in seri-ously earthquake-striken area are higher than that in lightly earthquake-striken area. It is likely that there is an asso-ciation with a large number of organechlorine pesticides sprayed.
