General description

Benzo(k)fluoranthene belongs to the class of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are a group of well-known environmental pollutants with both mutagenic and carcinogenic properties. They are released into the environment by the pyrolysis of organic materials.
This compound is listed in the SVHC (Substances of very high concern) candidate list of ECHA (European Chemicals Agency)

The metabolism of the environmental agents benzo(j)-fluoranthene and benzo(k)fluoranthene was investigated using supernatants from the livers of Aroclor 1254-pretreated rats, which are effective in activating benzo(j)fluoranthene and benzo(k)fluoranthene to metabolites mutagenic toward Salmonella typhimurium TA 100. Six bands of metabolites

A simple and rapid method for the highly sensitive determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water was developed. Benzo[a]pyrene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, perylene, and pyrene in water were concentrated into sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-alumina admicelles. The collection was performed by adding

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous pollutants of sediments. Sediment quality criteria often use toxicity data for individual PAHs. However, PAHs always occur in field sediments as a complex mixture of compounds. In this study, the toxicity of phenanthrene (P)

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metals are often environmental cocontaminants that could interact to alter PAH carcinogenicity. The heavy metal, arsenite, and the PAH, benzo[k]fluoranthene, were used as prototypes to investigate, in human HepG2 cells, mechanisms whereby the bioactivation

We developed a specific analysis method for benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and benzo[k]fluoranthene (B[k]F) using dual beam fluorometry. B[a]P and B[k]F exhibited two specific fluorescence intensities (up to 10-fold) compared with 22 other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) at 370 nm excitation and
