A study published in 2006 (Diabetes Care, 29:1638–1644) indicated a link between blood serum levels of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and diabetes. POPs are chemicals such as DDT, dioxins, PCBs and Chlordane, etc.) Individuals with elevated levels of POPs in their body were found to be up to 38 times more likely to be insulin resistant than individuals with low levels of these pollutants, though the study did not demonstrate a cause and effect relationship. As most exposure to POPs is through consumption of animal fats, study participants with high levels of serum POPs are also very likely to be consumers of high amounts of animal fats, and thus the consumption of the fats themselves, or other associated factors may be responsible for the observed increase in insulin resistance. Another possibility is that insulin resistance causes increased accumulation of POPs. Among study participants, obesity was associated with diabetes only in people who tested high for these pollutants.
Chlordane is included in this test kit.

In 2009 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) collected samples with surface wipes from U.S. kitchen floors and found agricultural pesticides in many of these. Four pesticides in this kit occurred on many of these surfaces (Chlordane, Cypermethrin Fipronil and Permethrin).
