Polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs): a group of related chemicals that are usually present in mixtures and usually as minor impurities among other chemicals such as PCBs and chlorophenols. They are quite similar to PCDDs both chemically and biologically (see PCDF and PCDD – specific items; since the properties are usually very close, a treatise is mostly given under PCDD/F).[1] (For detailed Synopsis on Dioxins and PCBs THL – Report 14/2011 45 information, see IARC Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humans, Volume 69, pp. 345-423, Lyon, 1997)[2]
