The Carcinogenic Properties of Overlooked yet Prevalent Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Human Lung Epithelial Cells

open access: yesToxics, 2022
The WHO classified air pollution as a human lung carcinogen and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are components of both indoor (e.g., tobacco smoke and cookstoves) and outdoor (e.g., wildfires and industrial and vehicle emissions) air pollution ...

The Hall rule in fluoranthene-type benzenoid hydrocarbons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2008
The applicability of the Hall rule (linear relation between the total π-electron energy and the number of Kekulé structures) was investigated in the case of fluoranthene-type benzenoid hydrocarbons. It was found that the originnal Hall rule is not obeyed,

Fungal transformation of fluoranthene [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1990
The fungus Cunninghamella elegans ATCC 36112 metabolized approximately 80% of the 3-14C-labeled fluoranthene (FA) added within 72 h of incubation. C. elegans metabolized FA to trans-2,3-dihydroxy-2,3-dihydrofluoranthene (trans-2,3-dihydrodiol), 8- and 9-hydroxyfluoranthene trans-2,3-dihydrodiol, 3-fluoranthene-beta-glucopyranoside, and 3-(8 ...

Investigating the Toxicity of Compounds Yielded by Staphylococci on Vero Cells

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Bacterial secondary metabolites play a major role in the alleviation of diseases; however, the cytotoxicity of other metabolites cannot be ignored as such metabolites could be detrimental to human cells. Three Staphylococci strains Staphylococcus aureus,

Quantification and health impact assessment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) emissions from crop residue combustion

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Emission of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon compounds from combustion of crop residue was investigated. Crop residues comprising maize cobs, maize husks, rice husks and bean chaff were burnt in a furnace at a temperature of 400 °C and the emissions from ...
