The correct option is B PCB
In 1968, a mixture of dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) got into rice bran oil by accidental leakage at the rice oil producing Kanemi Company on February 7-15 produced in northern Kyushu. Contaminated cooking oil sickened more than 1860 people. The symptoms were called Yusho disease.
