## Abstract The kinetics of oxidation of carcinogenic benzo(a)pyrene (0.1 nM solution in phosphate buffer) catalyzed by enzyme protein of soil and water plants (potato tubers and alga __Nitella__ sp.) has been studied. The benzo(a)pyrene oxidation rate is determined by the phenoloxidase activity of
A modified fluorometric procedure for the determination of basal aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity in human hair follicles is described. The method is also applicable for measurement of induction of the enzyme in primary cultures of keratinocytes originating from hair follicles. For good sensiti
A chemical synthesis of the phenolic ester of the trio1 epoxide derivatives of carcinogenic benzo[alpyrene is described. The chemical synthesis of the various reactive metabolites has been an essential factor in elucidating the molecular mechanism that is responsible for QOlycyClic aromatic hydroca
