Critical Reviews in Toxicology, 1998 (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic contaminants in the environment. Individual PCB congeners exhibit different physicochemical properties and biological activities that result in different environmental distributions and toxicity profiles.

Non–Dioxin-Like Polychlorinated Biphenyls and Risk of Endometriosis
Environmental Health Perspectives, 2010 Endometriosis, a gynecologic disorder affecting 8-10% of reproductive-age women in the United States, is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus and is linked to pelvic pain and infertility. Environmental contaminants, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), are hypothesized to contribute to endometriosis risk through ...
