High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis

Overview

Phenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) composed of three fused benzene rings, with the chemical formula C₁₄H₁₀. It is a colorless, crystal-like solid, though it can also appear yellow. Phenanthrene is utilized in the production of dyes, plastics, pesticides, explosives, and drugs. It is also involved in the synthesis of bile acids, cholesterol, and steroids.

Uses

Phenanthrene is used in various industrial applications, including the manufacturing of dyes, plastics, pesticides, explosives, and pharmaceuticals. It plays a role in the synthesis of important biological molecules such as bile acids, cholesterol, and steroids.

Regulatory

Phenanthrene is subject to regulation due to its potential health and environmental impacts. Laboratories conducting residue analysis must ensure compliance with regulatory limits set by international standards.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of phenanthrene levels in the environment and food products is crucial for ensuring safety and compliance with regulatory standards. Analytical techniques and high-purity reference materials are essential for accurate monitoring.

Health Impact

Phenanthrene is a potential carcinogen, as indicated by animal studies. However, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) does not classify it as a probable, possible, or confirmed human carcinogen.

Human Toxicity

Exposure to phenanthrene primarily occurs through inhalation of cigarette smoke, but other routes of exposure are also possible. Animal studies suggest that phenanthrene may pose carcinogenic risks.

Environmental Impact

Phenanthrene occurs naturally and can also be a man-made chemical. It is found in small amounts in certain coal-burning sites and can impact the environment and wildlife.

Effects on Wildlife

Phenanthrene's presence in the environment can affect wildlife, particularly in areas with significant industrial activity or coal burning.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and disposal of phenanthrene are essential to minimize exposure and environmental contamination. Laboratories should follow safety guidelines and use appropriate protective equipment.

Regulation

Phenanthrene is regulated by various international agencies to ensure safe levels in the environment and food products. Compliance with these regulations is critical for laboratories conducting residue analysis.

Analytical Standards
