A novel high resolution accurate mass Orbitrap-based GC-MS for routine analysis of Short Chained Chlorinated Paraffins
Description
Short Chained Chlorinated Paraffins (SCCPs) are emerging contaminants that, once released, will remain in the environment for long periods of time and therefore can bioaccumulate in living organisms. SCCPs are intentionally manufactured and used as lubricants and coolants in the metal processing industry or as plasticizers and flame retardants in plastic products. Chronic exposure to SCCPs is believed to have harmful and irreversible effects for humans and the environment [1]. As a consequence, SCCPs are listed in the Stockholm convention as chemicals with potential adverse effects and their pMarket: | Environmental |
