From planes to bowls: photodissociation of the bisanthenequinone cation
, 2018 We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of the photodissociation of the bisanthenequinone (C28H12O2) cation, Bq+. The experiments show that, upon photolysis, the Bq+ cation does not dehydrogenate, but instead fragments through the ...

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Corn Grains
Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca: Food Science and Technology, 2019 Contamination of crop plants with organic pollutants raises a growing interest in recent years; among the investigated pollutants, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are of special concern because some of them are toxic and carcinogenic.

Identification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [PDF]
The nature of the Very Small Grains evidenced by K. Sellgren (1985) is discussed. Thsir stability suggests that they are graphitic material and specifically Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs).
