“…Of the major components of technical chlordane, only aand 7-chlordane were completely stable over the eight-week period. These findings agree with those of Bevenue and Yeo (1969). It appears that the peaks produced by these two compounds in the gas chromatogram are the only reliable indication of the presence of technical chlordane in a water sample extract unless the chlordane has been present a very short time.…”

“…Such information would be extremely valuable for their identification and measurement in streams. Bevenue and Yeo (1969) and Thruston (1965) studied the weathering effect on chlordane from a prolonged exposure to water and organic solvent environments. Schwartz (1966) studied the microbial degradation of a carbamate pesticide, isopropyk/V-(3-chlorophenyl) carbamate (cipc), and a chlorinated herbicide, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), in water.…”

The persistence of 28 common pesticides in raw river water was studied over an eight-week period. Twelve organochlorine, nine organophosphorus, and seven carbamate pesticides were studied at a concentration of 10 ^g/liter. No measurable degradation or chemical change was observed for the following organochlorine compounds: bhc, heptachlor epoxide, dieldrin, dde, ddt, ddd, and endrin. Azodrin was the only organophosphorus compound that was stable throughout the study. All carbamate compounds were significantly changed after one week, and all but Baygon were completely lost after eight weeks. Where possible, the degradation or chemical conversion products of the pesticides were identified.

“…The chlordane was extracted with acetonitrile-water and the extract cleaned up with Florisil. The chlordane was quantitated by electron-capture GLC. Be venue and Yeo (42) studied by GLC the compositional changes in chlordane in aqueous and non-aqueous media.…”
