Polisiklik aromatik hidrokarbonlar (PAH) organik bileşiklerin eksik yanması sonucu ortaya çıkan toksik ve kansorejen etkiye sahip yine organik yapıda bileşiklerdir. PAH’lar hava, su, gıdalar ve sigara dumanı ile insan vücuduna girerek DNA’da mutasyona neden olmaktadır. Doğada 100’ün üzerinde PAH bileşiği tespit edilmiştir. Ancak kanserojen ve toksik etkisinin daha fazla olduğu düşünülen 16 PAH bileşiği öncelikli kirleticiler arasında kabul edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada polisiklik aromatik hidrokarbonların fiziksel ve kimyasal özellikleri, tayin yöntemleri ve insan sağlığı üzere etkileri derlenmiştir.
