Fig. 2 Boxplot distributions of the measured breast milk concentration of the 27 chemicals. Horizontal lines correspond to medians, and boxes to the 25th–75th percentiles; whiskers extend to data within the interquartile range times 1.5, data beyond this are plotted as dots. Wet weight concentrations are presented for PFASs (ng/L) and lipid adjusted concentrations for all other toxicants (ng/g). (See supplementary material Table S1 for numerical values.)
