Polychlorinated Biphenyls Influence on Hatchability ,
Poultry Science, 1973 Abstract Broiler breeder hens and Leghorn hens fed a diet containing 20 and 50 p.p.m. polychlorinated biphenyls (Aroclor 1242) for one week had their hatchability (percent hatch of eggs set) reduced to 67.3 and 26.8 percent, respectively, of control hens. The hatchability of the broiler hens fed 50 p.p.m.

Perchlorination of Polychlorinated Biphenyls [PDF]
Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1974 Abstract A simple and efficient method for the perchlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) to decachlorobiphenyl, using antimony pentachloride, is described. Average yields of decachlorobiphenyl from 3 individual samples of Aroclors 1016 and 1254 were 85 and 104%, respectively.
