Polychlorinated Biphenyls
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are industrial compounds with multiple industrial and commercial uses (Table 41.1). PCBs are chemically inert and stable when heated. These properties contribute greatly to PCBs having become environmental contaminants. The chemical inertness and heat stability properties that make PCBs desirable for industry also protect them from destruction when the products ...
متن کاملTissue distribution and half-lives of individual polychlorinated biphenyls and serum levels of 4-hydroxy-2,3,3',4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl in the rat.
This study was done to generate kinetic data on individual congeners of chlorinated biphenyls in the low dose range, which could be of value in the risk assessment procedure. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were given a single oral dose of a mixture of polychlorinated biphenyls (CBs) containing either CBs 105, 118, 138, 153, 156, 157, 170, and 180 (A-mix) or CBs 28, 52, 77, 87, and 101 (B-mix). Liver,...

متن کاملAnalysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in human serum.
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are widely dispersed in the environment. Occupational exposure to PCBs takes place, e.g., in manufacture and repair of capacitors and transformers. A special type of exposure of workers to PCBs may occur in connection with accidents where capacitors or transformers containing PCBs products are damaged, as in the case of a fire or electric arcing. The quantitatio...
