General description

Phenanthrene and its derivatives can be used to synthesize electron donor materials and electrolytes for organic solar cells.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with three fused benzene rings.

Application


  • Proteomic Analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Crop Xylem Sap: This study provides a deep dive into the transport and obstruction mechanisms of PAHs like Phenanthrene in crops, using proteomics and molecular docking, vital for enhancing food safety and crop protection strategies (Zeng et al., 2024).

  • Impact of Organic Acids on Phenanthrene Biodegradation: Offers insights into how low molecular weight organic acids influence the biodegradation of Phenanthrene, enriching our understanding of microbial interactions with environmental contaminants in biotechnological applications (Zhang et al., 2023).

Efficient bioremediation of PAH-contaminated sites is limited by the hydrophobic character and poor bioavailability of pollutants. In this study, stable isotope probing (SIP) was implemented to track bacteria that can degrade PAHs adsorbed on hydrophobic sorbents. Temperate and tropical soils

Sorption of PAHs to carbonaceous soil amendments reduces their dissolved concentrations, limiting toxicity but also potentially biodegradation. Therefore, the maximum abiotic desorption of freshly sorbed phenanthrene (≤5 mg kg(-1)) was measured in three soils amended with activated carbon (AC), biochar
