## Abstract The alkaline comet assay was used to further characterize the induction of DNA‐protein crosslinks (DPX) by formaldehyde (FA) and their removal in the human lung cell line A549. DPX were indirectly measured as the reduction of gamma ray‐induced DNA migration. Repeated treatments of A549
## Abstract Benzene is an occupational and environmental toxicant. The main human health concern associated with benzene exposure is leukemia. The toxic effects of benzene are dependent on its metabolism by the cytochrome P450 enzyme system. The cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP2E1 and CYP2F2 are the maj
Fumonisins are mycotoxins produced by Fusarium verticillioides. The toxic effects of fumonisin B 1 (FB 1 ) at the cellular level consist of a mixture of both necrosis and apoptosis. We studied the effect of FB 1 in human lung fibroblasts (NHLF) and human kidney epithelial cells (RPTEC) in primary cu
