Biochemical Effects Induced by the Hexachlorocyclohexanes
Hexachlorocyclohexane isomers (HCHs) are environmental contaminants produced as a result of the photochemical chlorination of benzene during the manufacture of technical HCH, which has been widely used for the control of agricultural pests and mosquitoes. Technical HCH is a mixture of five isomers: α-HCH (53–70%), β-HCH (3–14%), γ-HCH (11–18%), δ-HCH (6–10%), and ε-HCH (3–5%), of which only the γ-isomer (lindane) possesses relevant insecticidal activity (Langenhoff et al. 2002).
