| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Environmental pollution is a serious problem in most African countries. Persistent chemicals such as heavy metals, pesticides, dioxins, PCBs, etc. can be found not only in water, soil, air, plant, but also in the livestock animals. Monitoring these pollutant levels in food animals is of great importance to the wellbeing of all life forms. In this study, we measured accumulated levels of these environmental pollutants in animals and clarified the effects of chemical hazard on human and animals.
