Abstract
⺠Dioxins, furans and dioxin-like PCBs are detected in milk from camels in Kazakhstan. ⺠Atypical PCB pattern is observed. ⺠A few samples exceeded the maximum EU value of 6.00 pg TEQ gâ1 fat. ⺠Higher TEQ levels are observed in the Caspian Sea region of Atyrau. ⺠Further investigations of dioxin levels in Kazakhstan is needed.
