title: Micromethod for measuring hexachlorophene in whole blood by gas-liquid chromatography.
abstract: We describe a micromethod for measuring hexachlorophene by use of gas-liquid chromatography with a 63Ni electron capture detector. The procedure requires 100 micronl of blood for extractions of hexachlorophene, and dichlorophene is added as an internal standard. CV is 3.4% over the concentration range of 500 to 1300 microng of hexachlorophene per liter of whole blood. This procedure permits repeated measurements of hexachlorophene in newborns who are being washed with soap containing hexachlorophene.
