Polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs) are a class of chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbon chemicals that
once were used as heat-exchangers, transformers, and hydraulic fluids, and as
additives to paints, oils, joint caulking, and floor tiles. The different types
of PCBs are known as congeners, which are compounds that are distinguished by
the number of chlorine atoms and their location on the biphenyl structure. Peak
production occurred in the early 1970s, and production was banned in the U.S.
after 1979. More than 1.5 million pounds of PCBs were manufactured in the U.S.
prior to 1977. Concern about these chemicals continues because of their persistence
in the environment and accumulation in wildlife and the animal food chain. PCBs
enter the food chain by various routes, including migration into food from
external sources, contamination of animal feeds, and accumulation in the fatty
tissues of animals. PCBs are found in higher concentrations in fatty
foods, (e.g., dairy products and fish), and food is the main source of exposure
for the general population. PCBs can be transferred from mother to infant via
breast milk. Exposure to these chemicals nearly always occurs as mixtures
rather than individual PCB congeners.
Examined participants
aged 12 years and older from a one-third sample were eligible.
Serum specimens from NHANES 2015-2016 were stored frozen before analysis. Twenty-four non-dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (Table 1) were measured in serum using automated liquid-liquid extraction and subsequent sample clean-up. Final determination of target analytes was performed by isotope dilution gas chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry GC/IDHRMS. The analytical method is described in Jones et al., 2012, which is a modification of the method described by Sjodin et al., 2004.
Refer to the Laboratory Method Files for a detailed description of the laboratory methods used.
There were no
changes to the lab method, lab equipment, or lab site for this component in the
NHANES 2015-2016 cycle.
Serum specimens were processed, stored, and shipped to the Division of Laboratory Sciences, National Center for Environmental Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA for analysis.
Detailed instructions on specimen collection and processing are discussed in the NHANES Laboratory Procedures Manual (LPM). Vials are stored under appropriate frozen (-30oC) conditions until they are shipped to the National Center for Environmental Health for testing.
The NHANES quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) protocols meet the 1988 Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act mandates. Detailed QA/QC instructions are discussed in the NHANES LPM.
Mobile Examination Centers (MECs)
Laboratory team performance is monitored using several techniques. NCHS and contract consultants use a structured competency assessment evaluation during visits to evaluate both the quality of the laboratory work and the quality control procedures. Each laboratory staff member is observed for equipment operation, specimen collection and preparation; testing procedures and constructive feedback are given to each staff member. Formal retraining sessions are conducted annually to ensure that required skill levels were maintained.
Analytical Laboratories
NHANES uses several methods to monitor the quality of the analyses performed by the contract laboratories. In the MEC, these methods include performing blind split samples collected during “dry run” sessions. In addition, contract laboratories randomly perform repeat testing on 2% of all specimens.
NCHS developed and distributed a quality control protocol for all CDC and contract laboratories, which outlined the use of Westgard rules (Westgard, et al. 1981) when running NHANES specimens. Progress reports containing any problems encountered during shipping or receipt of specimens, summary statistics for each control pool, QC graphs, instrument calibration, reagents, and any special considerations are submitted to NCHS quarterly. The reports are reviewed for trends or shifts in the data. The laboratories are required to explain any identified areas of concern.
All QC procedures recommended by the manufacturers were
followed. Reported results for all assays meet the Division of Laboratory
Sciences’ quality control and quality assurance performance criteria for
accuracy and precision, similar to the Westgard rules (Caudill, et al., 2008).
The data were
reviewed. Incomplete data or improbable values were sent to the performing laboratory
for confirmation.

Please refer to the NHANES Analytic Guidelines and the on-line NHANES Tutorial for details on the use of sample weights and analytic issues.
Subsample Weights
Non-dioxin-like Polychlorinated Biphenyls & Mono-ortho-substituted Polychlorinated Biphenyls were measured in a one-third subsample of participants 12 years and older. Special sample weights are required to analyze these data properly. Specific sample weights for this subsample are included in this data file and should be used when analyzing these data.
Samples were pooled in groups of 8 samples per pool within 48 demographic groups. The analysis of NHANES 2015-2016 pooled-sample data must be conducted with the basic demographic variables provided in this data file. This pooled-sample data file cannot be linked to other NHANES 2015-2016 data. Because each sample person does not have an equal probability of selection, sample weighting is needed to produce correct population estimates of means, percentiles, and other descriptive statistics.
The pooled-sample weights required to produce estimates from these data are included in this data file. The analysis of pooled-samples from survey data is a relatively new field of study, and there is currently no established method to produce design effect adjusted variance estimates for these pooled results. These data cannot be analyzed using software designed for complex surveys because design features are not available.
Rationale and Methods Used to Create Pooled Results
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides an ongoing assessment of the US population's exposure to environmental chemicals by using biomonitoring in conjunction with CDC's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Characterizing the distributions of concentrations of environmental compounds or their metabolites in the US population is a primary objective of CDC's biomonitoring program. Historically, this characterization has been based on individual measurements of these compounds in body fluid or tissue from representative samples of the population. Pooling samples allows for larger sample volumes, which can result in lower limits of detection and reduces the number of measurements and costs. In NHANES 2015-2016, a weighted pooled-sample design was implemented to facilitate pooling samples before making analytical measurements. Table 1 lists the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) names, common abbreviation, and NHANES variable name for the analytes included in this data file.
Pools were prepared from serum collected from a random one-third subsample of the NHANES 2015-2016 participants aged 12 years and older. Samples were pooled based on gender, race and Hispanic origin, and age. To implement the pooled-sample design, each participant sample was identified as belonging to one of 48 demographic groups based on race and Hispanic origin (Mexican American: MA, Other Hispanic: OH, non-Hispanic white: NHW, non-Hispanic black: NHB, non-Hispanic Asian: NHA, Other race including multiracial: OTHER), gender (Male, Female), and age group (12-19, 20-39, 40-59, and 60+ years of age and older). Eight (8) samples were included in each pool. The number of pools created for each of the 48 demographic groups varied depending on the total number of individual samples available in a demographic group. The one-third subsample of NHANES 2015-2016 represents 2,133 individual samples, but because the pooled-sample design requires that all samples be of sufficient volume and that there be the same number of samples in each pool, 1989 samples were available to create 265 pools with 8 samples per pool. Data user needs to be cautious when making national inference including this population subgroup. See more details on pool sample formation and exceptions in Table 2. The variable SAMPLEID denotes the identification number for each pool and ranges from 1 through 265. Please refer to the Pooled-Sample Technical Support file (POOLTF_I) for detailed information on individual participants included in each pool.
In order to incorporate sample weighting into the pooled-sample design it was necessary to use a different volume of material from each sample contributing to a pool. The volume chosen for each sample in a pool was based on the ratio of its sampling weight to the sum of the sampling weights of all samples in the pool. To physically accomplish the pooling in the laboratory required that the ratio of the largest to the smallest sampling weight of samples in the same pool be no larger than about 10. The individual samples were sorted/stratified by sampling weight within each of the 48 demographic groups and pools were formed using samples with sampling weights adjacent to one another in the sorted list. The number of samples in the one-third subsample, number of samples available, the number of these samples that were usable, and the number of pools formed in each demographic group are presented in Table 2. Once the pools were created, summed sampling weights were further adjusted to account for the unused samples. These adjusted summed sampling weights are represented by the variable named WTBSMSMA.
Detection Limits
In the dataset, the whole-weight detection limit (pg/g serum) is a variable and dependent on the available sample size; however, the variation in sample size was low. Lipid adjusted detection limits are variable (ng/g lipid) due to differences of the lipid levels measured in individual pools/specimens. In cases where the result was below the limit of detection, the value for that variable is the detection limit divided by the square root of 2.
