“…A previous study on the synergistic toxicity of PAHs with other pollutants investigated the combined effects of fly ash and sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) on cucumbers. It was observed that neither fly ash nor sulphur dioxide showed effect alone, but when combined, the two caused severe chlorosis, which is a plant disease that manifests as the yellowing of leaves [20]. As a result, the active organic substances found in fly ash were claimed to be PAHs [17].…”

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) formed as a result of incomplete combustion of organic compounds. It contains compounds that cause toxic, teratogenic, mutagenic and carcinogenic damage, such as heterocyclic aromatic amines, benzene and formaldehyde. PAHs can be found in industrial wastes, garbage, cigarette smoke, pesticides and flue gases and can contaminate air, water, soil and food. Although more than 100 PAH compounds are detected in nature, it is accepted that 16 PAH compounds have more harmful effects. It is important to determine the PAH exposure levels of feeds used in animal nutrition, since the contamination of feed plants and factory feeds with PAH compounds will indirectly affect human health. In this study, the physical and chemical properties of PAHs and their effects on animal production and indirectly on human health were compiled.
