Journal ArticleDOI

Occurrence of the potent mutagens 2- nitrobenzanthrone and 3-nitrobenzanthrone in fine airborne particles

TL;DR: In the present study, 2-NBA, 3-NBA and selected PAHs and Nitro-PAHs were determined in fine particle samples collected in a bus station and an outdoor site, showing low cancer risk incidence and incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) calculated for both places.
Journal ArticleDOI

Particulate pollutants in the Brazilian city of São Paulo: 1-year investigation for the chemical composition and source apportionment

TL;DR: In this article, a year-round sampling was performed at the University of Sao Paulo campus (20m) in Brazil to evaluate the sources of particulate air pollution and related health risks, and different chemical constituents, such as carbonaceous species, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), water-soluble ions, and biomass burning tracers were identified in order to evaluate health risks and to apportion sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

A simple, comprehensive, and miniaturized solvent extraction method for determination of particulate-phase polycyclic aromatic compounds in air.

TL;DR: This procedure was found to be precise, accurate and suitable to be employed for determination of polycyclic aromatic compounds in airborne particles from both polluted and non-polluted atmospheres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methodology to examine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) nitrated PAHs and oxygenated PAHs in sediments of the Paraguaçu River (Bahia, Brazil).

TL;DR: A new analytical protocol for the determination of PACs in sediments using microextraction, which requires small sample masses, 500 μL of acetonitrile-dichloromethane mix and sonication for 23 min, followed by GC-MS analysis, showed good sensitivity, linearity, precision and accuracy.
