Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals in Kostrena coastal area.

The aim of this study was to determine pollution by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and heavy metals in seawater and sediment in Kostrena coastal area, as well as their toxicity using bioluminescence based tests. Total PAH concentration in seawater ranged 1.7-155.3 ng/L. The share of carcinogenetic PAH was relatively high, ranging 22-48.3%. Nickel concentrations in seawater were beyond d...

Accumulation of trace metals, petroleum hydrocarbons, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in marine copepods from the Arabian Gulf.

Screening of peptides recognizing simple polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Peptides that specifically bind to the simplest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, naphthalene, were obtained by affinity-based screening using a phage-displayed peptide library. The identified peptide with a β-turn structure showed specific binding to naphthalene present not only on substrates but also in aqueous solutions.

the relationship between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals

background : heavy metals and pah s in flue gas have received considerable attention in recent years due to their mutagenic or carcinogenic properties. pah s are products of incomplete combustion of carbonaceous compounds at high temperatures. heavy metals are released into the ambient air from the same sources as those earlier mentioned for pah s . the present study was carried out to investig...
