Specific provisions relating to pentachlorophenol (N° 102)(1) (2) CAS N° 87-86-5(3) STANDSTILL:The concentration of PCP in sediments and/or molluscs and/or shellfish and/or fish must not increase significantly with time. >TABLE> >TABLE> Heading C (102): Reference method of measurement 1.The reference method of measurement to be used for determining pentachlorophenol in effluents and the aquatic environment is high-pressure liquid chromatography or gas chromatography with electron-capture detection after extraction by means of an appropriate solvent. The limit of determination(1) is 2 ìg/l for effluents and 0,1 ìg/l for the aquatic environment. 2.The reference method to be used for determining pentachlorophenol in sediments and organisms is high-pressure liquid chromatography or gas chromatography with electroncapture detection after appropriate preparation of samples. The limit of determination(1) is 1 mg/kg. 3.The accuracy and precision of the method must be ± 50 % at a concentration which represents twice the value of the limit of determination(1). (1)Article 5 applies in particular to use of carbon tetrachloride in industrial laundries. (2)CAS (Chemical Abstract Service) number. (1)The 'determination limit' xg of a given substance is the smallest quantity, quantitatively determinable in a sample on the basis of a given working method, which can still be distinguished from zero. (1)The sum of the isomers 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2 bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethane; 1,1,1-trichloro-2 (o-chlorophenyl) -2- (p-chlorophenyl) ethane; 1,1,1-dichloro-2,2 bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethylene; and 1,1,1-dichloro-2,2 bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethane. (2)Article 5 applies to DDT if sources other than those mentioned in this Annex are identified. (3)CAS (Chemical Abstract Service) number. (1)The 'limit of determination' xg of a given substance is the smallest quantity, quantitatively determinable in a sample on the basis of a given working method, which can still be distinguished from zero. (1)The chemical compound 2,3,4,5,6-Pentachloro-1-hydroxybenzene and its salts. (2)Article 5 applies to pentachlorophenol, and particularly to its use for treating wood. (3)CAS (Chemical Abstract Service) number. (1)The 'limit of determination' xg of a given substance is the smallest quantity, quantitatively determinable in a sample on the basis of a given working method, which can still be distinguished from zero.
