High-pressure liquid chromatography of benzo(a) pyrene and benzo (ghi) perylene in oil-contaminated shellfish. 1976

H Guerrero, and E R Biehl, and C T Kenner

A high-pressure liquid chromatographic procedure is described for the determination of benzo(a) pyrene and benzo(ghi) perylene. These polynuclear aromatics are extracted with acetonitrile and partitioned into petroleum ether, the petroleum ether is removed, and the residue is saponified. The compounds are purified and isolated by passing the residue through a silica gel column and a high-pressure liquid chromatographic column, and detected by their ultraviolet absorption. Recoveries of standards through the procedure averaged 104%.
