PAHs

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a large group of organic compounds with two or more fused aromatic rings and are known to be cancer causing agents.

In 2011, EU Commission Regulation No 835/2011, amending Regulation 1881/2006, set maximum levels in edible oils to 2 ng/g of benzo[a]pyrene individually, and 10 ng/g of benzo[a]pyrene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, chrysene and benzo[a]anthracene combined.

We have developed several solutions for PAHs analysis:

  • POPs - PAHs - Perfluorinated compounds / 
  • PAHs
