title: Chromatographic techniques used to determine benz[c]acridines in environmental samples.
abstract: Benz[c]acridine and many of its related compounds have been shown to exhibit carcinogenic activity. Unfortunately, these compounds are continually being found in many natural and environmental samples in widely divergent geographical locations. A review of chromatographic methods for mainly benz[c]acridine and its analogues is presented.
