The metabolism of benzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF) in vivo in mouse skin was investigated. trans-4,5-Dihydro-4,5-dihydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF-4,5-diol) and trans-9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF-9,10-diol) have been identified as major metabolites. In addition, 4- and 10-hydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene and benzo[j]fluoranthen-4,5-dione have been tentatively identified among the metabolites formed in vivo

Studies have demonstrated that the metabolic activation of benzo[j]fluoranthene (B[j]F) to a genotoxic agent proceeds through the formation of either the trans-4,5-dihydrodiol (B[j]F-4,5-diol) or the trans-9,10-dihydrodiol (B[j]F-9,10-diol) metabolite of B[j]F. Using 32P-postlabeling analysis, the profiles of DNA adducts formed in

The metabolites of benzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF) as formed in vitro using the 9000 X g supernatant from Aroclor-pretreated rats have been identified. Two dihydrodiols, trans-4,5-dihydro-4,5-dihydroxyBjF and trans-9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxyBjF have been identified as major metabolites by comparison of their spectral and chromatographic properties
