Description
PCB 170 is a defined polychlorinated biphenyl congener offered in the ROTI®Star range for environmental and chromatographic analysis. Identified by CAS number 35065-30-6 and empirical formula C₁₂H₃Cl₇, this heptachlorobiphenyl has a molar mass of 395,32 g/mol and is supplied as a 5 mg portion in glass. The material supports calibration, identity confirmation and quantitative work in gas chromatography and related methods used for persistent organic pollutant monitoring. Environmental laboratories and residue-analysis groups use individual PCB congeners such as PCB 170 when building or verifying multi-congener methods and when assessing recovery and response factors. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH as part of the ROTI®Star portfolio, the compact glass pack suits precise weighing and controlled handling on the analytical bench. Applications include method development, routine GC screening and confirmatory analysis in environmental matrices where clear congener assignment and reproducible reference material are required for reliable chromatographic results.

Questions about PCB 170, ROTI®Star, 5 mg, glass
What is this article?
PCB 170, ROTI®Star, 5 mg, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in ICP, AAS & ion standards, inside Analytical standards & reference materials, in Lab chemicals.
An ICP, AAS or ion standard is a solution of a stated element or ion at a stated concentration, with an uncertainty. It is the calibration point of a spectrometer or an electrode. The matrix, often dilute acid, has to match the method. A standard past its expiry is not that concentration.
A reference material is the article against which another result is compared. Its value is stated, and the uncertainty of that value is part of the product. An ICP or ion standard is a solution of known concentration. A volumetric standard is for titration. A chromatography standard is the peak you match. The grade names, including pharmacopoeia and ASTM, say which impurities were limited. Identity is checked on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Medicinal grades follow the European Pharmacopoeia and USP.
Which category should I open next?
