2,2',3,5,5',6-hexachlorobiphenyl

2,2',3,5,5',6-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB 153) is a persistent organic pollutant (POP) and one of the most prevalent congeners in the environment. It is a colorless, odorless, and crystalline solid with a high melting point. PCB 153 is highly resistant to degradation and can persist in the environment for decades, accumulating in the food chain. It has been shown to have adverse effects on human health, including endocrine disruption, reproductive toxicity, and developmental neurotoxicity. Studies on PCB 153 focus on understanding its environmental fate, toxicology, and potential for bioaccumulation. It is also studied as a model compound for investigating the effects of PCB exposure on various biological processes.'
