“…Congener quantification is valuable because it enables the assessment of toxicity by PCB categories (Klocke & Lein, 2020), it can reveal congener‐specific metabolism (Rodenburg & Delistraty, 2019), and it can reveal sources—both fresh and weathered (Megson et al, 2019; Rodenburg et al, 2011). Michigan quantifies total PCBs using a relatively large subset (83 congeners); however, this subset is still likely to underpredict total PCB concentrations and confound comparisons across studies (Stapanian et al, 2018; Megson et al, 2019). The Michigan program is notable, however, in that other states still quantify total PCBs based on Aroclor methods (e.g., Ohio, Wisconsin, Minnesota).…”
