:Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
Description:
Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (OCDD) is a highly chlorinated organic compound belonging to the class of dioxins, specifically characterized by its two benzene rings connected by two oxygen atoms, with eight chlorine atoms substituted on the aromatic structure. It is a persistent environmental pollutant, primarily formed as a byproduct of industrial processes such as waste incineration and the production of certain herbicides. OCDD is known for its lipophilic nature, leading to bioaccumulation in the food chain, particularly in fatty tissues of animals. Its toxicity is attributed to its ability to bind to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), which can disrupt endocrine functions and lead to various adverse health effects, including carcinogenicity and developmental issues. Due to its stability and resistance to degradation, OCDD poses significant environmental and health risks, prompting regulatory measures to limit its release and exposure. Monitoring and remediation efforts are crucial in areas where OCDD contamination is identified, particularly in soil and sediment.

Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
CAS:Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (OCDD) is an environmental contaminant with no acute toxicity when administered. In rats, the systemic elimination half-life of Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (50 μg/kg intravenously or 50-5000 μg/kg orally) is 3-5 months. It can accumulate and concentrate in the liver and adipose tissue after low-dose, repeated exposure. Repeated dosing of Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin leads to increased activity of 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (7-EROD) and elevated total cytochrome P-450 levels.Formula:C12Cl8O2Color and Shape:SolidMolecular weight:459.75Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
