J R Van Gurp et al.
Cancer research, 43(12 Pt 1), 6031-6038 (1983-12-01)
The development of a selection procedure is described which utilizes the fact that certain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are rendered highly cytotoxic when illuminated with near-ultraviolet light. Twenty polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were screened for phototoxicity and toxicity in the absence of
N C Hughes et al.
Carcinogenesis, 14(1), 127-133 (1993-01-01)
Benzo[ghi]perylene (B[ghi]P) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), present in complex combustion products, and evidence for its carcinogenic activity in experimental animals is equivocal, and yet it has demonstrable mutagenic activity in vitro. In order to investigate the possible DNA

Nobuyasu Itoh et al.
Analytica chimica acta, 615(1), 47-53 (2008-04-29)
Microwave-assisted extraction using 1M KOH/methanol (alkaline-MAE) in combination with solid-phase extraction treatment was developed and applied to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in a sediment sample. Although various conditions were examined (100 or 150 degrees C for 10 or 30 min)
Karl L Platt et al.
Chemical research in toxicology, 18(4), 700-710 (2005-04-19)
Carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), e.g., benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), possess a bay region comprising an ortho-fused benzene ring. Benzo[ghi]perylene (BghiP) represents the group of PAHs lacking such a "classic" bay region and hence cannot be metabolically converted like BaP to bay
