Male Wistar rats were continuously exposed to NO 2 (14.4 ppm), SO 2 (46.5 ppm) and to a mixture of both gases and their effect on lung microsomal aryl hydrocarbon (benzo(a)pyrene) hydroxylase (AHH) activity was determined. The pre-exposed animals were administered methylcholanthrene (MC) to investig

3-hydroxy-benzo(a)pyrene (3-OH-B(a)P) and mutagenic activity in rat urine were determined after the oral administration of benzo(a)pyrene given in three repeated doses of 10, 20 and 50 pmol kg-'. The procedure for the determination of 3-OH-B(a)P consisted of enzymic hydrolysis, separation and HPLC-a
Eight pregnant rats were exposed, on the 17th day of gestation, for 95 min to a microcondensation aerosol of benzo[a]pyrene at five different atmospheric concentrations between 200 and 800 mg m-3 in a 'head-only' inhalation chamber. Five rats were killed immediately following the exposure and three
Box 5x90. Albuquerque, N M X7185. USA We have explored methods for determing benzo[aJpyrene (BaP) dosimetry by measuring adduction levels to F344/N rat blood hemoglobin, and have refined and validated an assay that measures the in vivo binding of the 7, 8-diol 9, 10-epoxide metabolite of BaP to glo
