What Does PARC Stand For?
PARC stands for Polycyclic Aromatic Ring Cleavage
PARC, or Polycyclic Aromatic Ring Cleavage, refers to the biochemical process involved in the breakdown of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through the cleavage of their aromatic ring structures. This process is significant in environmental science and biochemistry, as it plays a crucial role in the degradation of these complex organic compounds, which are known for their persistence and potential harmful effects in ecosystems and human health. Understanding PARC mechanisms is essential for developing effective bioremediation strategies and assessing the environmental impact of PAHs.
