General Description

(+)-Oxy-chlordane is a chemical compound that is a derivative of chlordane, a widely used insecticide. It is a member of the organochlorine class of compounds and is known for its toxic effects on the environment and human health. (+)-Oxy-chlordane is persistent in the environment and can accumulate in the fatty tissues of living organisms. It is considered to be a potential carcinogen and has been linked to adverse effects on the central nervous system, reproductive system, and immune system. Due to its harmful properties, (+)-oxy-chlordane has been banned in many countries and is no longer used as an insecticide. However, it continues to be a concern as a persistent environmental pollutant.
