Question Question on polycyclic hydrocarbons. I am struggling to find an article of resource that will help me find information on how polycyclic hydrocarbons produce carciongenic products and how it is formed.
Answer Dear Nutty
Try to get your local library (preferably a university one) to get hold of the proceedings of the following - A symposium on "Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Carcinogenesis" held at the third International Congress of Pathophysiology held in Lathi, Finland, 28 June-3 July 1998. It is maybe ten years old so may be a bit outdated but should still be relevant to your question.
