General description

β-Hexachlorocyclohexane is an isomer of hexachlorocyclohexane. It is an organochlorine pesticide with carcinogenic effects on both humans and animals.

Application

β-Hexachlorocyclohexane may be used as a reference standard for the determination of β-hexachlorocyclohexane in marine sediments by pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and stir-bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) coupled with thermal desorption and gas chromatography–triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (TD–GC–MS/MS QqQ).
