General description
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) belong to the class of highly toxic pollutants commonly found in various environmental matrices and food products. They find a variety of applications as flame retardants, plasticizers, dielectric and heat transfer fluids, etc.
Application
PCB No 3 may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in aqueous solution in the presence of dissolved organic carbon using high-performance liquid chromatography technique.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are legacy pollutants that exert toxicities through various mechanisms. In recent years exposure to PCBs via inhalation has been recognized as a hazard. Those PCBs with lower numbers of chlorine atoms (LC-PCBs) are semivolatile and have been

Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) levels of tens and hundreds of pg/ml for individual congeners are measured in human follicular fluid. PCB3 (4-chlorobiphenyl), caused a significant increase in estradiol secretion in porcine granulose-theca cell co-cultures and its two metabolites, 4-OH-PCB3 and 3,4-diOH-PCB3

4-Monochlorobiphenyl (CB3), mainly an airborne pollutant, undergoes rapid biotransformation to produce hydroxylated metabolites (OH-CB3s). However, up to now, hydroxylation of CB3 has not been studied in living organisms. In order to explore the formation of hydroxylated metabolites of CB3 in
