LOINC 2.82

2,2',5,5'-Tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB) [Mass/volume] in Serum or Plasma by Confirmatory method

2,2',5,5'-PCB SerPl Cfm-mCnc

Definition

  • Quantitative confirmation analysis of 2,2',5,5'-Tetrachlorobiphenyl associated with aroclors 1016, 1232, 1242, 1248, and 1254, five types of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixtures. The submitting lab's confirmation threshold is 0.2 ng/mL with analysis performed by GC/MS. Testing is performed to determine environmental or workplace exposure to PCBs.
