Description
PCB 171 is a single-congener polychlorinated biphenyl reference material in the ROTI®Star range, intended for analytical and environmental laboratory use. It is specified with CAS number 52663-71-5, empirical formula C₁₂H₃Cl₇, molar mass 395,32 g/mol and EG number 630-489-1. The heptachlorinated biphenyl structure makes PCB 171 relevant for gas-chromatographic separation studies, calibration mixtures and confirmatory testing of PCB residues. Supplied as 5 mg in a glass container, the unit quantity is convenient for dissolving and aliquoting into stock and working standards. Laboratories performing environmental analysis, method optimisation or multi-congener quantification can deploy this isomer wherever discrete PCB identity and response data are required. Clear chemical definition supports reproducible chromatography and consistent documentation across batches and instruments. The product comes from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the ROTI®Star line, giving users a focused reference option for GC-based PCB workflows without added formulation complexity or unspecified mixture components.
This article belongs on ICP, AAS & ion standards, in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about PCB 171, ROTI®Star, 5 mg, glass
What is this article?
PCB 171, 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.
