Abstract

Technical chlordane was examined using both achiral and chiral high-resolution gas chromatography (HRGC) with detection by electron capture, negative ionization mass spectrometry (ECNI-MS). The enantiomer separation of several chiral octachlordanes including cis- and trans-chlordane was achieved and enantiomeric ratios of approximately 1:1 were determined using a modified β-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector. The method was then applied to tissue extracts of several aquatic vertebrate species collected from the Baltic Sea (herring, salmon, and seal) and from Antarctica (penguin).
