Accumulating and Decreasing Profiles of Aldrin and its Epoxide, Dieldrin, in Hen's Egg Yolk
0Accumulating and Decreasing Profiles of Aldrin and its Epoxide, Dieldrin, in Hen's Egg Yolk
Layman Abstract : This study examines how the pesticide Aldrin (AD) and its toxic byproduct dieldrin (DD) accumulate in chicken egg yolks. Hens were given a single dose of aldrin, and the levels of both chemicals were measured in eggs over 21 days. Results showed that aldrin quickly converts to dieldrin inside the hen’s body, with dieldrin appearing in eggs as early as day 2 and peaking on day 6. Dieldrin remained in the yolk for up to 21 days, with a half-life of about 25.6 days, indicating its persistence. This study highlights the potential risks of aldrin exposure in poultry and its long-term presence in eggs.
