Goal

Provide researchers with authenticated test compounds and analytical standards, such as PCB sulfates and other PCB metabolites, which are not available from commercial sources and need to be custom synthesized.

Aims

  1. Maintain and prepare PCB mixtures and pure PCB congeners
  2. Prepare hydroxylated PCB derivatives
  3. Synthesize PCB sulfate metabolites
  4. Prepare miscellaneous compounds, including diazomethane.
