ORIGIN, DISTRIBUTION AND IMPACT OF POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS ON FOOD SAFETY AND HUMAN HEALTH
PAHs can be formed through two main mechanisms: pyrosynthesis and pyrolysis. Anthropogenic pyrolytic PAHs are the main source of PAHs in the environment. PAHs are ubiquitous compounds found in all environmental compartments Meat, meat products, oils, and fats are considered the main contributors to daily PAH intake through ingestion. Exposure to PAHs varies at an individual level depending on location and lifestyle habits.
