Dieldrin (CAS 60-57-1)
QUICK LINKS
Dieldrin is an organochlorine compound studied for its environmental impact and persistence as a pollutant. It was historically used as an insecticide, but due to its long-term environmental effects, Studies have shifted towards understanding its behavior in ecosystems and its bioaccumulation. Studies involve the monitoring of dieldrin residues in soil, water, and wildlife to assess contamination levels and the potential risks to ecosystems and non-target organisms. Analytical methods are developed and refined to detect and quantify trace amounts of dieldrin in environmental samples. Studies are conducted on the degradation of dieldrin by various physical, chemical, and biological processes to identify ways to remediate contaminated sites. The compound′s stability and resistance to degradation make it a subject of interest in the study of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and their long-term ecological consequences.
