Tetrachloro- o -benzoquinone as a Component in Bleached Kraft Chlorination Effluent Toxic to Young Salmon
Evidence is given that tetrachloro-o-benzoquinone is involved in the toxicity of bleached kraft chlorination effluent (BKCE) to young Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar. The main experimental support was isolation of tetrachlorocatechol from whole BKCE and from a BKCE fraction toxic to salmon, after reduc...
