Identification of Xenobiotic Contaminant of Field Water Supply System Designed for Rapid Deployment Force.

Abstract

Analysis of methylene chloride extract of water from a field storage and distribution system tested at Fort Irwin, CA, in September 1982, was performed at US Army Medical Bioengineering Research and Development Laboratory November 22-24, 1982, and the previously unidentified major organic contaminant was shown to be 5,8,11,13,16,19-hexaoxatricosane (common names: butylcarbitol formal and Cryoflex).
