Pampanin and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although a lot is known about the influence of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) on the marine environment, there are still many unanswered questions. Petrogenic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in the Aquatic Environment is a monograph that sums up basic knowledge about this topic while highlighting current research practices useful in studying the aquatic environment. It starts with an introduction to effect of PAH in the marine environment. It then proceeds to provide information on techniques to monitor PAH levels and investigate the affected environment in order to control the subsequent negative effects. Chapters also detail the carcinogenic and endocrine effects of PAHs on fish as well as the degradation of PAHs by microorganisms. This monograph is a useful reference for environmental science students and professionals learning about the role of PAH in the marine environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polycyclic Hydrocarbons and Cancer, Volume 3 explores the link between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and cancer based on research in the fields of chemistry, biology, and the medical and social sciences. Topics covered include the metabolism of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons; carcinogenicity of PAHs and their derivatives; the role of microsomal epoxide hydrolase in the biotransformation of PAHs; and biochemical effects of the phorbol ester tumor promoters and their implications for PAH carcinogenesis. This volume consists of eight chapters and begins with a discussion on the mechanisms of PAH metabolism in the marine environment. The use of X-ray crystallographic techniques in studying carcinogenic PAHs and their derivatives is then considered, along with the involvement of dihydrodiols and diol epoxides in the metabolic activation of PAHs other than benzo[a]pyrene; the role of microsomal epoxide hydrolase in PAH biotransformation; and drug detoxication in relation to the excretion mechanism of chemical carcinogens. The following chapters focus on the anticarcinogenic or inhibitory effects of a variety of chemicals on PAH carcinogenesis; the biochemical effects of the phorbol ester tumor promoters on PAH carcinogenesis; and epidemiology of PAHs, with emphasis on quantification of the cancer risk from cigarette smoking and air pollution. This monograph will be of interest to investigators and educators concerned with scientific aspects of PAH research; government officials and elected representatives as well as industry leaders who must confront and solve the problems related to PAHs; and others in the fields of chemistry, biology, and the medical and social sciences.

This book was released on 2005-08-22 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview on the molecular mode of action of carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are by-products arising from incomplete combustion of organic matter that are frequently released into our environment, and thus are ubiquitously detectable. Many PAHs are strong carcinogens in rodent bioassays and have been linked to increased incidences of various types of cancer in humans. The present book covers all aspects of PAH-induced carcinogenesis; it is a collection of articles written by some of the most recognizable PAH researchers, reviewing the present knowledge in this field. The topics include: exposure to and biomonitoring of PAHs in the human population; metabolic activation of PAHs; genotoxicity and repair of PAH-induced DNA damage; and factors modulating individual susceptibility to the deleterious effects of PAHs.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recreational boating facilities have historically been areas of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination brought upon by a variety of sources including stormwater runoff, petroleum product combustion, atmospheric deposition, and fueling operations. These compounds can be released to the environment through disturbance of the sediments. Physicochemical reactions of particulate phase organic matter with organic contaminants in contaminated sediments are one of the factors that may influence the release of these contaminants to the surrounding environment. Relationships between these organic matter components and PAHs may be a deciding factor in determining the fate of these dredged sediments, including their possible re-use. In this study, the relationships between PAH concentrations and organic matter components are presented. Desorption kinetics are examined in a laboratory setting using Tenax® TA resin beads that act as an infinite sink for hydrocarbons. Three marinas, along the Western Basin of Lake Erie were chose to represent common marina settings throughout the basin. Samples were analyzed for organic matter, total organic carbon, black carbon, and PAHs. Concentrations of PAH compounds were variable within and between marinas. Ratios of PAH compounds indicated that most chemicals are from a pyrogenic origin. Although it was the smallest portion of the quantified organic matter, black carbon showed the best correlation to PAH concentrations. Desorption trials show compounds desorb in a biphasic component manner, a fast desorbing component and a slow more "refractory" component. Desorption kinetics were mostly related to the quality of organic matter present, with slow desorbing sites having higher black carbon quantities.
