Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDD) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDF) represent a group of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), toxic substances which occur in natural environment including human bodies. Presented chlorinated aromatic compounds (also dioxin-like PCBs, DL-PCBs) were analyzed by high resolution gas chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry operating at a mass resolution R = 10 000 (10% valley definition) in food samples (chicken egg, meat of carp, cow ́s and sheep ́s milk and lard) originated from different areas in Slovakia. Toxic equivalent of food samples was determined. Values of TEQ were compared with maximum levels setting in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 and action levels setting in Commission Recommendation 2011/516/EU.
