Objective. We investigated the relationship between plasma levels of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and liver function in malaria control personnel 6 months after one round of DDT indoor residual spraying (IRS). Method. This was a cross-sectional study in the districts of Apac and Oyam of Lango, northern Uganda.
