Organochlorine Pesticides Mix

Product Code: VMRPM001

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are synthetic chemicals widely used in agriculture and vector control during the mid-20th century. Due to their environmental persistence and potential health risks, their use has been largely restricted or banned in many countries. For analytical and monitoring purposes, various certified reference materials (CRMs) and pesticide mix standards are available to detect and quantify these compounds.

Examples of Organochlorine Pesticide Mix Standards:

1. Organochlorine Pesticide Mix AB #1: This standard contains 200 µg/mL of each component in a hexane:toluene (1:1) solvent mixture, provided in a 1 mL ampul.

2. Appendix IX Organochlorine Pesticides Mix: Offered by Sigma-Aldrich, this CRM includes 2000 µg/mL of each component in a hexane:toluene (1:1) solution, supplied in a 1 mL ampul.
