Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAH) classified as noncarcinogens
may be photooxidized to mutagenic or toxic products by
near-ultraviolet (NUV) wavelengths of sunlight (290-320 nm). The
possibility that this represents a major degredation pathway in the
aquatic environment is of increasing concern. Large quantities of
PNAH from accidental oil spills, anthropogenic and...
