| Abstract | The objectives were two fold: To determine the level of polychlorinated biphenyl residues present in Coho salmon from Lake Michigan; and To chemically characterize the major individual components. Various physical and chemical methods used in attempts to separate the DDT complex, especially DDE, from polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) proved unsuccessful on a quantitative basis. These methods included high-speed liquid column chromatography, sulfuric and permanganate oxidation, and derivatization with tetraphenyl cyclopentadienone. (Author) |
