Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Egyptian red sea sediments: Seasonal distribution, source Identification, and toxicological risk assessment

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Egyptian red sea sediments: Seasonal distribution, source Identification, and toxicological risk assessment

This study investigated the concentrations of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments from the shoreline of the Red Sea. 16 PAH concentrations ranged from 1.43 to 4990.69 µg/g dry weight to 1.64 to 6397.69 µg/g dry weight during spring and autumn, respectively. Most sites with the hi...
