This elution window standard is designed to facilitate the reliable calibration and verification of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) analysis by gas chromatography (GC) in environmental, industrial, and regulatory laboratories. The solution contains a precisely defined set of PCB congeners formulated to represent key retention times across common GC columns. By providing consistent reference points, the standard enables accurate determination of elution order and window setup during method development and routine quality control.

Ideal for laboratories analyzing soil, water, oil, food matrices, or air samples for PCB contamination, this standard supports both targeted and non-targeted PCB assays. It aids in method validation, performance verification, and instrument tuning across diverse GC methods. The formulation is manufactured to tightly controlled specifications, ensuring high lot-to-lot reproducibility and traceability for regulatory compliance.

Compatible with Agilent’s full range of GC and GC-MS instruments, including the 7890 and 8890 systems, it can also be integrated into workflows using related sample preparation and cleanup consumables. This standard is an essential tool for analysts seeking to achieve robust and reproducible quantitation of persistent organic pollutants in complex sample matrices.
