AB  - The contamination status of twelve persistent organic pollutants (POPs) on the 
      Stockholm convention in the surface sediments of Han river, which is one of the 
      largest river in the South Korea were investigated. Five organochlorine 
      pesticides (OCPs) such as aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, mirex, and SigmaCHLs 
      (alpha-chlordane, gamma-chlordane, cis-nonachlor, trans-nonachlor, and 
      heptachlor) were not detected in all sediment samples. The overall concentrations 
      of DDTs, HCB, dioxin-like PCBs (DL-PCBs) and PCDD/Fs were in the range of 
      1.05-8.94microgkg(-1) (average value: 3.93microgkg(-1)), 0.485-3.73microgkg(-1) 
      (1.48microgkg(-1)), 41.5-4,530ngkg(-1) (548ngkg(-1)), and 23.1-368ngkg(-1) 
      (131ngkg(-1)), respectively. The principal source of HCB, DL-PCBs and PCDD/Fs was 
      identified as a deposition in this study. For the DL-PCBs, it was also shown that 
      commercial PCBs product (Kanechlor 500 and/or Aroclor 1254) plays a role as a 
      source in sediment.
