However,
anthracene derivatives, including the force-responsive ones, have previously only been studied in solution, films, or elastomers; leaving room open for their novel application in other material schemes, including engineering composites.
Benzo (a)
Anthracene (BaA) was found to be in highest concentration i.
5 %
anthracene solution (dissolved in hexane) and left the flasks opened near the flame in hood to allow evaporation of organic solvents and were incubated 35 C in an orbital shaker operated at 150 rpm for 8-16 days.
In both the CEWAF and WAF solutions, naphthalene was the predominant (65%-84%, CEWAF, WAF) PAH compound, but
anthracene also made a significant contribution to the total PAH (16.
In addition, the environmental protection agency (EPA) has set up an index of air pollution that refers to sixteen PAHs including naphthalene, acenaphthylene, acenaphthene, fluorene, phenanthrene,
anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo(a)
anthracene, chrysene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, dibenzo(a,h)
anthracene, benzo(ghi)perylene, indeno(1,2,3-cd) pyrene, benzo(a)pyrene, etc.
Some PAHs have been classified as priority pollutants [9]; sixteen of the common or so "unsubstituted" PAHs, naphthalene, acenaphthylene, acenaphthene, fluorene, phenanthrene,
anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo[a]
anthracene, chrysene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, benzo[a]pyrene, dibenz[a,h]
anthracene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene, and indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene, typically analyzed in standard contract laboratory scans have been listed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA).
The concentrations of acenaphthene, acenaphthylene,
anthracene, fluorene and naphthalene were near or beyond the detection limit.
Alizarin, when treated in this fashion, yielded
anthracene, a well-known component of coal tar.
The results of the phytochemical screening of hexane and ethanol extracts of the tuber of Anchomanes difformis in table 1 showed that both the hexane and ethanol extracts do not contain saponins, resins, terpenoids, phenols, balsam,
anthracene and anthraquinone.
All EPA Priority Pollutant PAHs except acenaphthene, acenaphthylene, and
anthracene, were detected in all of the blends; however, only benzo[a]antracene, benzo[a]pyrene, and bezo[f]luoranthene consistently exceeded remediation criteria.
Five groups, each of ten Spague Dawley adult female albino rats were administered with 100 ug 7, 12 dimethyl benz [a]
anthracene (DMBA) once a week and 10 ug 12-0 tetra deconal phorbol B acetate (TPA) twice a week, for twenty and eighteen weeks, respectively, to allow development of breast cancer.
Chemoprevention of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)
anthracene (DMBA)-induced oral carcinogenesis in hamster cheek pouch by topical application of a dual inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGRF) and ErbB2 tyrosine kinases.
