High-Quality Reference Materials for Accurate Residue Analysis

Overview

PCB 180 (Polychlorinated Biphenyl 180) is one of the congeners of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which are synthetic organic chemicals with various industrial applications. PCB 180 is known for its high stability and persistence in the environment.

Uses

PCBs, including PCB 180, were widely used in electrical equipment, heat transfer fluids, and as additives in paints, sealants, and plastics. Due to their environmental persistence and potential health risks, the use of PCBs has been significantly restricted.

Regulatory

Regulatory bodies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the European Union have established stringent limits on PCB levels in various matrices, including food, water, and soil. Laboratories must adhere to these regulations to ensure compliance and public safety.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of PCB 180 in environmental and food samples is crucial to assess contamination levels and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. Accurate and reliable reference materials are essential for this purpose.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Exposure to PCB 180 can lead to various health issues, including skin conditions, liver damage, and potential carcinogenic effects. Chronic exposure may result in more severe health impacts.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

PCB 180 is highly persistent in the environment and can bioaccumulate in the food chain, posing significant risks to wildlife. It can affect the reproductive, immune, and endocrine systems of various species.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and disposal of PCB-containing materials are essential to minimize environmental contamination and human exposure. Laboratories must follow safety protocols and guidelines when working with PCB 180 reference materials.

Regulation

International regulations, such as the Stockholm Convention, aim to eliminate or restrict the production and use of PCBs, including PCB 180. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for industries and laboratories.

Analytical Standards

HPC Standards GmbH provides high-purity reference materials for PCB 180, ensuring accurate and reliable residue analysis. Our products meet the highest industrial standards and are tested according to international quality requirements, making them essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis.
