Resumo
The various human activities aimed at economic development, arising mainly from industrial production, generate byproducts/waste chemicals, which if not handled properly, bring harm to soil, water, animals and plants, the last two being, achieved through phenomenon called bioaccumulation. Polychlorinated biphenyls are derived, for example, the burning of materials organochlorines, which are substances with high toxicity used industrially from the 30 (thirty). Because of this, a portion of this contaminant came into contact with the environment and, consequently, with the human being. The Ministry of Environment (MMA) has the National Plan for Management and Disposal of PCBs, polychlorinated biphenyls. In this work, we performed a survey of research related to environmental contamination and potential toxicity of these substances. For this, a review was made of titles and abstracts available at the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI Web of Science), using the key words "soil contamination" and "polychlorinated biphenyls". Besides searching in ISI Web of Science, was made available in the job search portal Google Scholar, and also in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO). The publications of surveys used in the making of this investigation demonstrate the historical use of PCBs, the characteristics and potential of contamination on the environment and human health. In the results presented is the harmful effect of this substance to man, and the intake of food and contact with contaminated equipment, the main routes of exposure.
