RT Report T1 Chlordane: Environmental Health Criteria 34 A1 United Nations Environment Programme, A1 World Health Organization, A1 International Labour Organisation, K1 chemical K1 environmental health K1 pollution K1 carcinogen K1 epidemiology K1 toxicology SN 92 4 154094 X YR 1984 FD 1984 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/29335 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/29335 NO Chlordane is a viscous, light yellow to amber-coloured liquid. Technical chlordane is a mixture of at least 26 different components and up to 14 distinct chromatographic components have been described. Its main components are a- and y-chlordane. Analysis is difficult because of the complex nature of chlordane. The principal method for its qualitative and quantitative determination is gas-liquid chromatography with electron capture detection.
