AhR-mediated activities of polycyclic aromatic compound (PAC) mixtures are predictable by the concept of concentration addition

Environment International, 2014
Risk assessments of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are complicated because these compounds exist in the environment as complex mixtures of hundreds of individual PAHs and other related polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs).
