Assessment of Sources and Health Risks of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the Street Dust of Dezful City
Street dust is mainly affected by the pollution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are a group of organic pollutants consisting of two or more benzene rings and are mainly produced during incomplete combustion. PAHs have attracted widespread attention due to their high carcinogenic and mutagenic properties in humans. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the sour...
متن کاملPolycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Residential Dust: Sources of Variability
BACKGROUND There is interest in using residential dust to estimate human exposure to environmental contaminants. OBJECTIVES We aimed to characterize the sources of variability for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in residential dust and provide guidance for investigators who plan to use residential dust to assess exposure to PAHs. METHODS We collected repeat dust samples from 293 hou...
متن کاملParticulate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the urban Northeast Region of China: Profiles, distributions and sources
In this study, concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) associated with PM10 were measured to examine the status, characteristics and sources of atmospheric PAH pollution in the industrial Northeast Region of China. Mean concentrations of total PAHs were 65.5, 40.0, 73.0 and 436.7 ngm 3 in the four seasons respectively. The calculated BaPeq concentrations in winter all exceeded...
متن کاملSource, distribution, and health risk assessment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in urban street dust from Tianjin, China.
To better assess and understand potential health risk of urban residents exposed to urban street dust, the total concentration, sources, and distribution of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in 87 urban street dust samples from Tianjin as a Chinese megacity that has undergone rapid urbanization were investigated. In the meantime, potential sources of PAHs were identified using the prin...
