General description

3-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

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

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and alkylated PAHs are known to be major toxic contaminants in spills of petroleum hydrocarbons (oil). Spilled oil undergoes weathering and over time, PAHs go through a series of compositional changes. PAHs can disrupt endocrine functions
