aReporting limit is 1 ng/m2.When samples had detectable levels of a pesticide below the reporting limit, this was shown as “<1” in the table and included as 0.5 ng/m2 in
the calculations.
bThe median, minimum and maximum values for total OCs were calculated by summing the total OC value for each home, then selecting the median, minimum and
maximum values from the total OC values for all the homes in either Keraghari or Kafaldanda.
