Health Risk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons: A Review
Accepted: 29/12/2014 Abstract Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants and found almost everywhere. Most of PAHs are formed during the incomplete combustion of organic matter such as wood, petroleum product, coal and tar. These chemicals are biologically active and pose a risk for human health because of their potentially toxicity such as carcinogenicity...
متن کاملContamination of Tea and Tea Infusion with Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
The aim of this work was to validate the method of determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), i.e., benzo(a)pyrene and sum of benzo(a)pyrene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene and chrysene in different types of tea, as well as to assess the transfer of these contaminants from tea to tea infusion. The research materials were popular types of black, green, red and white tea. ...
متن کاملRisk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Pasta Products Consumed in Nigeria
Background: The present study aimed to quantitatively determine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in pastas consumed in Nigeria with the view of estimating the daily intake amount and the possible risks to consumers. Methods: Sixteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were determined in locally produced and imported pasta using a GC-Mass Spectrometer. Estimation of daily intake was done on...
متن کاملDe novo transcriptome assembly of shrimp Palaemon serratus
The shrimp Palaemon serratus is a coastal decapod crustacean with a high commercial value. It is harvested for human consumption. In this study, we used Illumina sequencing technology (HiSeq 2000) to sequence, assemble and annotate the transcriptome of P. serratus. RNA was isolated from muscle of adults individuals and, from a pool of larvae. A total number of 4 cDNA libraries were constructed,...
متن کاملTransport of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in a Calcareous Wetland Soil
Knowledge of transport and degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is important in assessing PAH contamination of soils and water resources. The transport of naphthalene, anthracene, pyrene and phenanthrene was determined in a contaminated calcareous soil obtained from the Shadegan wetland (Khozestan, Iran) considering a column study in laboratory conditions. The PAHs were added ...
