General description

Dibenz[a,h]anthracene 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.

Application

Dibenz[a,h]anthracene may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in cane sugar, marine samples, bulk precipitation and runoff waters by chromatography techniques.
