Hydroxynitro-PAH and other PAH derivatives in California's atmosphere and their contribution to ambient mutagenicity. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5336741
Nitro-PAH lactones formed in the air by reactions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitrogen oxide gases, may be responsible for a significant portion of the mutagenicity of particulate matter present in California's atmosphere. Simulating ambient California air, smog chamber studies were conducted on three PAHs: naphthalene, fluorene, and phenanthrene. The resulting chamber contents were fractioned by liquid chromatography. The most mutagenic fractions were chemical analyzed.
