Metabolism of the polycyclic hydrocarbon benzo(a)pyrene (BP) to watersoluble products was measured in cultured human leukoeytes from 35 healthy volunteers. The classification into 3 different groups with respect to degree of BP metabolism fits that obtained in a previous population and family study,

## Abstract The metabolism of three carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was measured in midβ(population doubling levels of 20β39) and lateβ(population doubling levels > 55) passage cultures of WIβ38 human diploid fibroblasts. Cultures of midβand lateβpassage cells metabolized these hydroc
