Term Description

Quantitative confirmation analysis of 2,2',5,5'-Tetrachlorobiphenyl associated with aroclors 1016, 1232, 1242, 1248, and 1254, five types of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixtures. The submitting lab's confirmation threshold is 0.2 ng/mL with analysis performed by GC/MS. Testing is performed to determine environmental or workplace exposure to PCBs. For more information and a full list of PCB congeners, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCB_congener_list.

Part Description

LP173539-0   2,2',5,5'-Tetrachlorobiphenyl
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a class of organic compounds with 1 to 10 chlorine atoms attached to biphenyl and a general chemical formula of C12 H10-x Clx. Most of the 209 congeners of PCB are colorless, odorless crystals. The commercial mixtures are clear viscous liquids (the more highly chlorinated mixtures are more viscous, for example, Aroclor 1260 is a sticky resin). Although the physical and chemical properties vary widely across the class, PCBs have low water solubilities and low vapor pressures. They are soluble in most organic solvents, oils, and fats. PCBs are very stable compounds and do not degrade readily. However, under specific conditions they may be destroyed by chemical, thermal, and biochemical processes. These processes may occur intentionally (e.g., incineration), unintentionally, or metabolically. Because of their high thermodynamic stability, all degradation mechanisms are difficult.
