1,8-Dinitropyrene (1,8-DNP) is a highly mutagenic and carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) that has been identified as a major environmental contaminant. It is formed during the incomplete combustion of organic materials, such as coal, oil, and wood, and is often found in diesel exhaust, soot, and air particulate matter. 1,8-DNP is a potent mutagen and has been shown to induce a wide range of genetic mutations in various organisms. It is also a known carcinogen and has been linked to an increased risk of lung cancer, bladder cancer, and other cancers. The potent mutagenicity and carcinogenicity of 1,8-DNP, along with its widespread presence in the environment, make it a significant public health concern. Research into 1,8-DNP focuses on understanding its formation pathways, developing methods for its detection and remediation, and investigating its potential health effects.'

Bioavailability

ExcerptReferenceRelevance
" The rate of absorption of DNP from the small intestine was greater than that from the large intestine, although overall uptake of the compound was poor (more than 80% of the original dose was recovered from the ligated small intestine after 120 min)."( Distribution and excretion of 1,8-dinitro[14C]pyrene in the mouse.
