Popis:	Hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs; CAS 608-73-1) are a group of manufactured chemicals. HCHs were produced and used as insecticide on fruit, vegetables, and forest crops, and for direct application on animals and animal housing, a few decades ago. It is also available as a prescription medicine to treat or control scabies and head lice in humans. HCHs were recently included as new persistent organic pollutants in the Stockholm Convention.
