High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples.

Overview

Chrysene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with the molecular formula C₁₈H₁₂. It consists of four fused benzene rings and is a natural constituent of coal tar. High-purity chrysene is colorless, although it may appear yellow due to traces of its isomer, tetracene.

Uses

Chrysene is primarily used in scientific research and residue analysis. It is a significant compound for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.

Regulatory

Chrysene is classified as a Group 2B carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), indicating it is possibly carcinogenic to humans. Regulatory bodies require strict monitoring of chrysene levels in various environments to protect public health.

Monitoring

Monitoring chrysene levels is essential in environmental and food safety analysis. Laboratories use high-purity reference materials to ensure accurate and reliable measurements, adhering to international quality standards.

Health Impact

Chrysene is suspected to be a human carcinogen. Evidence suggests it causes cancer in laboratory animals, although it is often contaminated with more strongly carcinogenic compounds. Chrysene is estimated to have about 1% of the toxicity of benzo(a)pyrene.

Environmental Impact

Chrysene is found in coal tar, creosote, and tobacco smoke. Its presence in the environment is a concern due to its potential carcinogenic effects. Monitoring and controlling chrysene levels are crucial to minimize its impact on the environment.

Safety Measure

Handling chrysene requires strict safety measures due to its carcinogenic potential. Laboratories must follow appropriate safety protocols, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and proper ventilation systems.
