General description

FA, a six ringed highly stable compound, is considered as an environmental indicator. It is mainly selected for simulation study.
Fluoranthene (FA) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, which can be used in the preparation of fluorescent chemosensors for the specific detection of picric acid.

application

FA was used after dissolving in HPLC grade acetonitrile, in order to determine retention data and to study the linearity of the detector, during HPLC analysis of PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon).
Fluoranthene (FA) may also be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in food samples, oils, fats, and environmental samples by various chromatography techniques.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
