Soil amendment with activated charcoal can reduce dieldrin uptake by cucumbers [PDF]
Organochlorine pesticides (OCP) were once applied world wide but have been banned meanwhile in most countries because of their ecotoxicity, bioaccumulation and persistence.

The analysis of dieldrin residues in the brain, liver and muscles of the African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822) chronically exposed to dieldrin [PDF]
Mature adult Clarias gariepinus were obtained at the ABRU hatchery in Sonning (UK), where they had beenbred and reared for several years. These were exposed to two concentrations of dieldrin in water (2.4 mu g super(-1) and 4.0 mu g super(-1).

Analysis of Dieldrin and DTTB in Textiles
Standard analytical methods for the detection of dieldrin and 4,6-dichloro-7-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)-2-trifluoromethylbenzimidazole (DTTB) in textiles, which are regulated by Japanese law ("Act on the Control of Household Products Containing Harmful Substances"), have been in place for more than 30 years.
