General description

2-Methylnaphthalene belongs to the class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), found to be a major environmental contaminant. It can occur in high concentrations in a variety of commercial products including coal tar, crude oil, etc.

Application

2-Methylnaphthalene may be used to identify the analyte from thermal degradation of bituminous/anthracite coals, tyres, and cellulose samples using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technique.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

The anaerobic biodegradation of naphthalene, an aromatic hydrocarbon in tar and petroleum, has been repeatedly observed in environments but scarcely in pure cultures. To further explore the relationships and physiology of anaerobic naphthalene-degrading microorganisms, sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were enriched from
