[Determination of aldrin, dieldrin and endrin in the air by gas chromatography]. 1982

J Krechniak, and W Foss

A gas chromatographic method of determination of aldrin, dieldrin and endrin in air has been developed. The method involves trapping in ethylene glycol, extraction with hexane and determination by electron capture gas chromatography on a Gas Chrom Q column coated with 15% QF-1/10% DC-200. The determinability of the method amounts to 0,0015-0,003 mg/m3.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D004026	Dieldrin	An organochlorine insecticide whose use has been cancelled or suspended in the United States. It has been used to control locusts, tropical disease vectors, in termite control by direct soil injection, and non-food seed and plant treatment. (From HSDB)	Alvit-55,Alvit 55,Alvit55
D004732	Endrin	An organochlorine compound that was formerly used as an insecticide. Its manufacture and use has been discontinued in the United States. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)	Hexadrin
D000393	Air Pollutants	Any substance in the air which could, if present in high enough concentration, harm humans, animals, vegetation or materials. Substances include GASES; PARTICULATE MATTER; and volatile ORGANIC CHEMICALS.
