Twenty milk samples were collected from lactating mothers from Madrid during the period April to July, 1981 and were analyzed for organochlorine compounds by gas chromatography with electron capture detection. Mercury was quantitated by flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometry. All samples showed measurable quantities of gamma-HCH, p,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDT, PCBs and mercury. The mean level of PCBs was 0.25 ppm and that of Hg was 0.0095 ppm. (JMT).
