Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and Derivatives
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of organic chemical compounds recognized for their high toxicity and adverse health effects on humans and wildlife. PAHs are formed when two or more single aromatic ring compounds are exposed to high heat and/or pressure and fuse to form a more complex, multiple aromatic compound molecule. For instance, PAHs can be generated during the burning process of oil, coal, gasoline and may also occur when cooking at high temperatures.

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) Regulations
PAHs and their metabolites have been linked to many health issues such as respiratory and eye irritation, as well as cancer. As a result, global environmental regulatory agencies such as the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the European Chemical Agency (ECHA) have published a series of test methods and recommendations for the testing and monitoring of PAHs in food, drinking water and air.
AccuStandard offers a comprehensive selection of single and multiple component Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) for the analysis of PAHs and their metabolites designed for test methods such as USEPA 550, 610, 8310, 8272 and DIN38407.
