1,4-Dibromobenzene (1,4-DBB) was covalently bound to DNA from liver, kidney, lung and stomach of mice after intraperitoneal administration. The covalent binding index (CBI) value (23 in mouse liver) was typical of weak initiators. On the contrary, no interaction with DNA

Murine S9 liver fractions isolated from mice fed 7.5 g kg-1 2(3)-tert-Butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA) for 3 weeks were tested to determine: (a) the profile of both phase-I and phase-II xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes; (b) their ability to induce in vitro covalent binding

The growth rate reduction of mosquito fish (Gambusia affinis) fry was investigated with a range of sublethal exposure levels of four halobenzenes for 42 days. These compounds were found to produce growth rate reduction in mosquito fish fry at concentrations

The distribution, excretion and metabolism of 1,4-dibromobenzene (1,4-DBB) and 1,2-dibromobenzene (1,2-DBB), following a single intraperitoneal administration to female Wistar rats, were investigated using radiotracer 3H and GC-MS technique. The maximum level of 3H after 1,4-DBB administration was detected in all
