Abstract

Typical chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides (aldrin, dieldrin, mirex, etc.) were extracted from excessive matrices of polychlorinated biphenyls and naphthalenes (Aroclor 1242, Halowax 1013) by a gas chromatographic peak transfer technique. The sample was injected onto a nonpolar column and the appropriate fraction transferred by valve to a second, polar column, where in most cases, the insecticide separated cleanly from the PCB or PCN matrix.
