Two Aroclor 1260 standards and A2) were included in these analyses. One standard was from the Columbia National Fisheries Research Laboratory, and the other from the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Laurel, MD.) A difference in the concentration of one constituent of about 30% was responsible for the small difference observed between the two Aroclor 1260 standards (Figure 5.) Use of a quantitative chemometric method to describe compositional residue differences measured in environmental samples may prove helpful in correlating residue profiles and concentrations with observed biological effects, such as decreased survival of young birds.
