Metabolite Identification
Common NameBenz[a]anthracene
Descriptiontetraphene, also known as 1,2-benzanthrazen or benz[a]anthracene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenanthrenes and derivatives. These are polycyclic compounds containing a phenanthrene moiety, which is a tricyclic aromatic compound with three non-linearly fused benzene. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on tetraphene. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Benz[a]anthracene is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Benz[a]anthracene is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
