Abstract

Four chiral HRGC column systems for the separation of selected organochlor pesticides and photoconversion products (heptachlor, cis- and trans-chlordane, o,p'-DDT, o,p'-DDD, and α-HCH) were tested. Cod liver oil and fish oil samples from different countries were comparatively analyzed. Of all these columns, the fourth was the most suitable one for the analysis of the selected compounds. The enantiomer ratios [ER] of cis-chlordane, trans-chlordane, photodieldrin, α-HCH, and o,p'-DDD in fish oils are nearly 1.0, while the ERs of the same substances are significantly different from 1.0 in cod liver oils. Contrary to that, the ER values of o,p'-DDT are remarkable different from 1 in the cod liver oils as well as in the fish oils.
