Analysis of Polycyclic Hydrocarbons

Analysis of Polycyclic Hydrocarbons

A gas-chromatographic procedure using the electron-capture detector is presented. By fractionation of cigarette smoke on silica gel, followed by gas-chromatographic analysis of the fractions, fifteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were identified. Application of this procedure to quantitative anal...
