The concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene in Bombay

Rao, A.M.Mohan / Vohra, K.G.

Abstract The concentrations of the environmental carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene in the atmospheric air of Bombay have been measured. Thin layer Chromatographic plates of silica gel C were used for the separation of sample extracts and spectrophotofluorometer was used for estimation using excitation wavelengths of 300 and 381 nm and emission wavelength of 410 nm for B(a)P. The concentrations of B(a)P in various zones in Bombay are discussed and compared with similar data from other countries. Preliminary data on the size distribution of aerosols containing B(a)P is also presented.
