In Vitro Metabolism of Dibenzo[a,l]pyrene, 2-Chlorodibenzo [a,l]pyrene and 10-Chlorodibenzo[a,l]pyrene - Effects of Chloro Substitution

Abstract: Stereoselective metabolism of dibenzo[a,l]pyrene (DB[a,l]P), 2-chlorodibenzo[a,l]pyrene (2-Cl-DB[a,l]P) and 10-chlorodibenzo[a,l]pyrene (10-Cl-DB[a,l]P) by rat liver microsomes was studied and effects of the chloro substituent on the metabolism were determined. All three compounds produced...
