P Bryla et al.
Cancer letters, 65(1), 35-41 (1992-07-31)
The binding of benzo[a]pyrene, 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene, 3-methylcholanthrene, benz[a]anthracene, dibenz[a,c]anthracene and phenanthrene to calf thymus DNA in vitro in the absence of enzymatic or chemical activation was investigated using the 32P-postlabeling assay. Reactions were performed in the dark or under white light
A P Koley et al.
Biochemistry, 34(6), 1942-1947 (1995-02-14)
The flash photolysis technique was used to examine the kinetics of CO binding to cytochromes P450 in rat liver microsomes. The effect of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and flavones was used to distinguish the kinetic behavior of the PAH-metabolizing P450
N D Madhavan et al.
Human & experimental toxicology, 14(6), 503-506 (1995-06-01)
Human placenta, umbilical cord blood, maternal blood and breast milk samples from mothers were analysed for the presence of selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Benzo(a) pyrene (B(a)P), dibenzo(a,c)anthracene (DBA) and chrysene (Chy) were detected in all the four types of
J R Bend
Ciba Foundation symposium, 76, 83-99 (1980-01-01)
The mechanisms by which administration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) stimulates drug-metabolizing enzymes are summarized. The hepatic monooxygenase system of marine and freshwater fish is also induced by PAH-type compounds, including chlorinated dioxins and certain polychlorinated and polybrominated biphenyl isomers
S Kumar et al.
Mutation research, 242(4), 337-343 (1990-12-01)
The mutagenic activities of dibenz[a,c]anthracene (DB[a,c]A), and its 11 derivatives, including 3 diols, 6 phenols and 2 oxepines, were studied in the TA100 strain of Salmonella typhimurium at doses varying from 0 to 20 micrograms/plate in the presence of a
