Description

1,6-Dichlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin CAS NO 38178-38-0 is a specific chlorinated derivative of the dibenzo-p-dioxin class, characterized by its distinct substitution pattern. This compound serves as a critical high-purity reference standard and research chemical for analytical and environmental studies. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories, environmental testing facilities, and academic research institutions engaged in the study of dioxin-like compounds.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Used as a certified standard for the calibration and validation of analytical methods, particularly gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), for dioxin analysis.
• Environmental Research: Employed in studies investigating the environmental fate, transport, and toxicological profile of chlorinated dioxins and related persistent organic pollutants (POPs).
• Method Development: Serves as a key component in the development and optimization of new analytical techniques for the detection and quantification of trace-level dioxin contaminants.
• Toxicology Studies: Utilized in laboratory research to understand the structure-activity relationships and biological effects of specific dioxin congeners.
• Quality Control: Acts as a system suitability check or internal standard in high-precision analytical workflows within regulatory and commercial testing laboratories.
