Description

9,10-Dihydrobenzo(A)Pyrene is a high-purity polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) derivative, identified by CAS NO 17573-15-8. This compound is of significant value as a critical reference standard and analytical intermediate in environmental and toxicological research. It is primarily required by research institutions, analytical laboratories, and chemical manufacturers engaged in the study of PAH metabolism, environmental monitoring, and material science.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Used as a certified standard for the calibration and validation of analytical instruments (HPLC, GC-MS) in environmental testing for PAH contamination.
• Toxicology Research: Serves as a key intermediate or metabolite analog in studies investigating the biological effects, metabolic pathways, and carcinogenicity of benzo[a]pyrene and related PAHs.
• Environmental Science: Employed in method development and quality control for the analysis of air, water, soil, and food samples to monitor PAH levels.
• Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a specialized building block or precursor in organic synthesis for developing novel compounds in material science and pharmaceutical research.
• Regulatory Compliance Testing: Essential for laboratories performing tests to comply with environmental regulations (e.g., EPA, EU directives) concerning PAHs.
