Rapid measurement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contamination in soils by visible and near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2013 Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widely distributed organic pollutants. At petroleum contaminated sites, PAHs are often the key risk drivers because of their carcinogenicity. Assessing the risk of PAH at contaminated sites by conventional soil

Differences between Pinus pinea and Pinus pinaster as bioindicators of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [PDF]
, 2011 The potential of Univariate and Multivariate Analysis and specifically Principal Components Analysis (PCA), has been employed to assess the performance of pine needles as bioindicators of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and particularly emphasize

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Air [PDF]
Archives of Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology, 2011 Policiklički aromatski ugljikovodici u zrakuPoliciklički aromatski ugljikovodici (PAU) spojevi su koji se sastoje od dva ili više kondenziranih aromatskih prstenova. Nastaju prilikom nepotpunog izgaranja ili pirolize organskih tvari. Dokazano je da neki PAU imaju kancerogena, a neki mutagena svojstva, pa je stoga potrebno kontinuirano pratiti ...

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons with SPICA [PDF]
SPICA joint European/Japanese Workshop, 2009 Thanks to high sensitivity and angular resolution and broad spectral coverage, SPICA will offer a unique opportunity to better characterize the nature of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and very small grains (VSGs), to better use them as probes of astrophysical environments.

Hydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: isomerism and aromaticity
Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2020 A simple model based on adjacency matrices is introduced to study the stability of hydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Aromaticity governs their relative stability having the most stable isomers the higher number of non-hydrogenated rings.
