General description

Benzo(k)fluoranthene belongs to the class of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are a group of well-known environmental pollutants with both mutagenic and carcinogenic properties. They are released into the environment by the pyrolysis of organic materials.

The metabolism of the environmental agents benzo(j)-fluoranthene and benzo(k)fluoranthene was investigated using supernatants from the livers of Aroclor 1254-pretreated rats, which are effective in activating benzo(j)fluoranthene and benzo(k)fluoranthene to metabolites mutagenic toward Salmonella typhimurium TA 100. Six bands of metabolites

Certainpolynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) induce CYP1A-dependent enzyme activities. Because PAHs are ubiquitous environmental contaminants, and some are aryl hydrocarbon agonists, CYP1A has been used as a biomarker for PAH exposure. However, PAHs exist in the environment

We developed a device and some systems for detecting benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and benzo[k]fluoranthene (B[k]F). The device uses a UV light-emitting diode that emits light with a wavelength of 370 nm and a violet laser diode that emits light with a

In bioassays, exposure concentrations of test compounds are usually expressed as nominal concentrations. As a result of various processes, such as adsorption, degradation, or uptake, the actual freely dissolved concentration of the test compound may differ from the nominal concentration.

Japanese medakas (Oryzias latipes) and triolein-embedded cellulose acetate membranes (TECAMs) were exposed simultaneously to benzo[k]fluoranthene (BkF) in the static exposure system containing different concentrations of humic acid (HA). The concentration-response relationships of induced hepatic 7-ethoxysorufin-o-deethylase (EROD) activity were established in
