Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs) were determined in blubber tissue of one 3 month and two adult female seals from Lake Baikal. High PCDD and PCDF concentrations were found in the Baikal seal. The levels are comparable with those reported for ringed seals (phoca hispida) living in the Baltic sea, and Barrow Strait and Admiralty Inlet in the Canadian Arctic.
