Relative standard deviations <strong>of</strong> all collected and analysed soil sampleswere less than 15%, and thus, stand for the comparison as well as assessment <strong>of</strong>temporal trend <strong>of</strong> selected OCPs in the same diagram.Regarding the value in Table 11, it clearly indicates that these compounds havefound ways to penetrate in Vietnam soil for a long time. <strong>The</strong> ΣDDT concentrationsranged from 0.8 to 896.5 ng g -1 . <strong>The</strong> ΣDDT concentrations were highest inagricultural soil and then, reduced in industrial and urban soil. <strong>The</strong> maximal values<strong>of</strong> ΣDDT in agricultural soil in Hanoi in 1992, 1995, 1998, and 2001 are significanthigher than MAC-value <strong>of</strong> ΣDDT in 2006. In the case <strong>of</strong> ΣHCH, the concentrationsin soil samples during the period from 1992 to 2001 ranged from 0.15 to 38.79 ng g -1 (Table 11). Similar to ΣDDT, ΣHCH concentrations in agricultural soil sampleswere also higher than those in industrial and urban soil. <strong>The</strong> residual levels <strong>of</strong>ΣHCH were all in low range. Though the ΣHCH levels were not so high, thepresence <strong>of</strong> ΣHCH in most soil samples was clearly shown.Figure 10.
