General description

Dibenzo[a,l]pyrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) found in cigarette smoke condensate and coal combustion. It is an environmental pollutant and a potent carcinogen known to induce tumors in rat mammary gland, mouse skin, lungs and liver.

Application

Dibenzo[a,l]pyrene may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in crude extracts of environmental samples, water samples and Chinese coal fly ash CRM by chromatography and spectrometry techniques.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants generated as byproducts of natural and anthropogenic combustion processes. Despite significant public health concern, physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling efforts for PAHs have so far been limited to naphthalene, plus simpler PK
