    Abstract:
    An investigation was performed in order to evaluate the presence as polluting agents of chlorinated hydrocarbons in complex cosmetic matrices. Chlorinated pesticides, such as Dieldrin, alpha-Endosulfan, Heptachlor, alpha-Hexachlorocyclohexane (alpha-HCH), Lindane and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) such as Aroclor 1254, were studied in two ingredients and in three finished commercial products. The analytical procedure consists of extraction, extract clean-up, separation of pesticides from PCBs, identification and measurement. Analysis was performed by gas chromatography with electron-capture detector, identity of pesticides and PCBs was assumed from retention times and quantification was based on peak-height measurements.
