Description

General description

Fluoranthene (FA) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, which can be used in the preparation of fluorescent chemosensors for the specific detection of picric acid.

This compound is listed in the SVHC (Substances of very high concern) candidate list of ECHA (European Chemicals Agency)

FA, a six ringed highly stable compound, is considered as an environmental indicator. It is mainly selected for simulation study.

Application

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

FA was used after dissolving in HPLC grade acetonitrile, in order to determine retention data and to study the linearity of the detector, during HPLC analysis of PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon).

Fluoranthene (FA) may also be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in food samples, oils, fats, and environmental samples by various chromatography techniques.
