2017, Journal of Chromatography ACitation Excerpt :The described method, based on TE-GC–MS, is a powerful tool for phenanthrene exposure studies. As discussed previously, phenanthrene is an important environmental pollutant with a suspected adjuvant effect on allergic disease [21–24,28]. Phenanthrene or other diesel soot associated PAH exposure might play a role in explaining the observed increased allergic sensitization and diseases associated with the western lifestyle [29–31].
