Difference between Carcinogen and Persistent organic pollutant

Carcinogen vs. Persistent organic pollutant

A carcinogen is any substance, radionuclide, or radiation that promotes carcinogenesis, the formation of cancer. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are organic compounds that are resistant to environmental degradation through chemical, biological, and photolytic processes.

Similarities between Carcinogen and Persistent organic pollutant

Carcinogen and Persistent organic pollutant have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Breast cancer, Carcinogen, International Agency for Research on Cancer, Kepone, Metabolism, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, Solvent.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs, also polyaromatic hydrocarbons or polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons) are hydrocarbons—organic compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen—that are composed of multiple aromatic rings (organic rings in which the electrons are delocalized).

Solvent

A solvent (from the Latin solvō, "loosen, untie, solve") is a substance that dissolves a solute (a chemically distinct liquid, solid or gas), resulting in a solution.
