1. The metabolism of 4-methoxybiphenyl to 4-hydroxybiphenyl and its sulphate and glucuronic acid conjugates has been studied in rat isolated hepatocytes at various concentrations of 4-methoxybiphenyl. 2. The proportions of metabolites produced remained constant at concentrations of 4-methoxybiphenyl less than

The rate of production of 4-hydroxybiphenyl from 4-methoxybiphenyl in hepatocytes isolated from untreated rats was essentially identical to that from biphenyl in hepatocytes isolated from rats pretreated with beta-naphthoflavone at 40 mg/kg. Similar results were obtained using liver microsomes isolated
