General description

2-Methylchrysene is a methyl derivative of chrysene, belonging to the class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), ubiquitously present in the environment. It is one of the contaminants in smoked food products.

Application

2-Methylchrysene may be used as certified reference material for the quantification of the analyte in soil samples and sediment samples using gas chromatography followed by mass spectrometric analysis.
