Identification of polychlorinated planar chemicals in fishes from major watersheds near the Great Lakes

Fish from 18 major watersheds near the Great Lakes were collected in 1979, 1980, or 1981, and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for polychlorinated planar organic chemical residues. Isomers of 36 different chemicals were identified by mass spectral data but not quantitated. The list i...

Description
Summary:Fish from 18 major watersheds near the Great Lakes were collected in 1979, 1980, or 1981, and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for polychlorinated planar organic chemical residues. Isomers of 36 different chemicals were identified by mass spectral data but not quantitated. The list includes isomers of chlorinated dibenzo- p-dioxins and dibenzofurans.
