    Author: Sawicki E.
    Journal: IARC Sci Publ (1971); 1976; (13):297-354. PubMed ID: 1002180.
    Abstract:
    Problems in the sampling and analysis of a variety of key air pollutants have been considered. The pollutants of primary interest were those with carcinogenic, mutagenic or cofactor activity. These include benzo[a]pyrene, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes, alkylating agents, amines, chloromethyl ethers, epoxides nitrosamines, nitrogen dioxide, nitrates, sulfate and sulfite. Screening tests of the analytical and bioassay types were also discussed; a large variety of these tests were summarized in tables. Concentrations of benzo[a]pyrene in urban atmospheres, in highly polluted atmospheres and effluents, and in a large variety of environment mixtures were reported.
