Toxaphene Certified Reference Standard
.jpg)
Toxaphene, a complex organochlorine pesticide, has been the most broadly applied pesticide in the United States and other countries since the 1970s. The United States banned the use of this pesticide by 1990 after the toxicity and persistence of toxaphene became unquestionable. In 2002, the U.S. EPA was contacted regarding concerns about toxaphene residual wastes and degradation products into streams and estuaries. Traditional methods could potentially underestimate residues once the toxaphene weathering process had begun in the environment. Because of the potential for toxaphene underestimation, degradation products need to be determined with highly sensitive methods. These events have culminated in the validation of a suitable extraction method for weathered toxaphene and its degradation products in fish tissues using Accelerated Solvent Extraction.
