Effects of Different Interventions Aimed at Reducing Dermal and Internal Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Exposure Among Firefighters [PDF]

Journal of Xenobiotics
Firefighters are inherently exposed to soot and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) at work. In this repeated measures study, we assessed if three different interventions reduced PAH exposure.

Three distinct conductance states in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Tight-binding model (TBM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed. Both simulations have demonstrated that the electrical conductance for eight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) can be modulated by varying the number of ...

Vertical distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the brackish sea water column: ex situ experiment [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background Oil spills can cause severe damage within a marine ecosystem. Following a spill, the soluble fraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is rapidly released into the water column.
