Aroclor 1221 is a well-characterized polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixture designed for use as a certified reference material in analytical laboratories. It delivers accurate identification and quantification during environmental, food safety, and quality control testing. This reference standard is essential for the calibration of gas chromatographs and mass spectrometers when determining PCB contamination in water, soil, sediment, and biological samples.

Widely used in environmental monitoring and compliance assessments, this product supports regulatory testing protocols such as EPA Method 8082 and other international standards. Its homogeneity and stability ensure reproducible results and reliable performance in trace-level PCB analyses. Researchers leverage this standard to validate new analytical methods and as a positive control in toxicity and fate studies of PCBs.

Optimized for seamless integration with a broad range of Agilent GC and GC/MS systems, it is also compatible with instruments from other major analytical equipment manufacturers. Complementary certified reference standards covering additional Aroclor mixtures and individual PCB congeners are available to provide comprehensive support for method development and validation. This product is supplied with thorough documentation certifying its composition and intended analytical applications, facilitating precise and traceable laboratory workflows.
