| The Cornell team worked with sand contaminated with phenanthrene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon typically found in coal tar. |
| This report details a study of the biodegradation of phenanthrene in soil, using a slurry reactor in the presence and absence of a surfactant solution. |
| Phenanthrene was excited at 300 nm, and its emission was recorded over the range 350-400 nm. |
| The next members are the isomers anthracene and phenanthrene, C14H10, formed from three benzene nuclei. |
| Rarely, anaphylactoid reactions have been reported when morphine or other phenanthrene alkaloids of opium are administered intravenously. |
| Phenanthrene forms a quinone which has been utilized as a source of colouring-matters, but these are comparatively unimportant. |
