Aquaculture Farming Interview Question:

Tell me are fish oils associated with dioxins and PCBs?

Submitted by: Muhammad

A Canadian Food Inspection Agency study found that dioxin, furan and PCB levels in fish oil samples do not exceed the Canadian Guidelines for Chemical Contaminants and Toxins in Fish and Fish Products. Dioxins and Furans are measured in parts-per-trillion, while PCBs are measured in parts-per-billion. Levels in farmed fish are well below most wild fish and daily foodstuffs eaten by Canadians.
