Abstract

The carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), anthracene, in the methanolic crude extract of the leaves of cabbage samples collected from different districts of Bangladesh was analysed by GC-MS. It was observed that PAH deposition on the samples takes place in different morphological parts of the biological materials. The PAH, anthracene, was only found in the cabbage samples collected from the roadside by the extraction of methanolic solvents.
