2. Project Title: Identification, characterisation and quantification of substances with dioxin-like structure in waste gas condensates of Bavarian waste incineration plants

3. Project Focus:

• Project Primary Focus: Exposure Assessment
• Project Secondary Focus: Human Health Effects

4. Description:

Further investigations to explain the discrepancy between the results (based on I-TEQ) obtained from biological tests (AHH-induction) and chemical-anyltical anaylses. Recent results have shown that the "biologically" determined TEQ is approx. twofold higher than can be explained on a substance basis. Project started July 1996
