General description

PCB No 156 belongs to the class of polychlorinated biphenyls, which exist as persistent contaminants in environmental matrices and food products.

Application

PCB No 156 may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in:
  • environmental samples using glass capillary gas-chromatography with electron capture detection
  • environmental matrix standard reference materials using supercritical fluid extraction/Soxhlet extraction combined with gas chromatography coupled to two electron capture detection systems
