A p r i n c i p a l components m u l t i v a r i a t e statistical approach (SIMCA) was evaluated and a p p l i e d to interpretation of isomer specific analysis of polychlorinated b i p h e n y l s (PCBs) u s i n g both a m i c r o c o m p u t e r and a main frame computer. Capillary column gas chromatography was employed for separation and d e t e c t i o n of 69 i n d i v i d u a l PCB isomers. Computer programs were written i n ANSII MUMPS to provide a laboratory data base f o r data manipulation. This data base greatly assisted the analysts i n c a l c u l a t i n g isomer concentrations and data management. Applications of SIMCA for quality control, classification, and e s t i m a t i o n of the composition of multi-Aroclor mixtures are described for characterization and study of complex environmental residues.

The A r o c l o r standard i s a mixture of three A r o c l o r s i n the r a t i o of 033:0.33:0:0.33. Chromatograms of the samples f o r which the PLS e s t i m a t e s were made ( T a b l e V I ) were s i m i l a r when compared to a chromatogram of a s i m i l a r m i x t u r e of standards. The p a r t i a l l e a s t squares (PLS) method has been a p p l i e d t o s t r u c t u r e a c t i v i t y p r o b l e m s by Wold ej: a l . ( 3 8 ) . Recently, Lindberg e t a l . (40) employed t h i s approach t o r e s o l v e mixtures of humic a c i d and l i g n i n s u l f o n a t e on t h e b a s i c o f f l u o r e s c e n c e spectra. This example demonstrates that the PLS method gives a s t a b l e e s t i m a t e of t h e Y - b l o c k , even though t h e r e a r e many more Xv a r i a b l e s than samples, a c o n d i t i o n that removes the p o s s i b i l i t y of a p p l y i n g m u l t i p l e r e g r e s s i o n .
