Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are man-made organic chemical compounds created by the chlorination of biphenyl.There are 209 possible configurations, known as congeners, plus a number of industrial mixtures, marketed as Aroclors.PCBs (and PCTs, polychlorinated terphenyls) were widely used as dielectric and coolant fluids, for example in electrical apparatus, cutting fluids for machining operations, carbon paper and in heat transfer fluids.
In addition to all PCB 209 congeners, we test for:
