Particle-associated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in a suburban region of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with industrial and traffic emissions
From April 206 to March 2007, total suspended particles (TSP) and PM10 samples were collected at the Campus of FIOCRUZ, situated in a suburban region with intense industrial and commercial activities in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). The concentrations of 16 selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs...
