## Abstract The activity of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (substrate: benzo(__a__)pyrene) was increased in the tracheas of rats exposed to cigarette smoke for 1 h daily for either 1 or 10 days. However the degree of increase in activity was lower in the trachea than in the lung. After a single expos

## Abstract A study of the liver microsomeβmediated binding to added DNA of the phenol metabolites of benzo (a)βpyrene (BPβOH) and of 7,8βdihydroβ7,8βdihydroxybenzo (a)pyrene (BPβ7,8βdiol) suggested that as in the case of BP itself the reaction was catalysed by the enzyme aryl hydrocarbon hydroxyla
## Abstract The metabolism of tritiated benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) by primary mouse embryo cells in culture was studied. At concentrations of B[a]P in the medium below about 2β3 mΞΌ moles/ml, metabolism was exponential with time, but at higher concentrations a period of rapid metabolism was followed by
By means of time-resolved total internal reflection (TIR) fluorescence measurements, rise and decay profiles of the pyrene excimer fluorescence were examined in toluene containing 3.3x 10e4 mol dm-" of poly(methy1 methacrylate) (PMMA, MW= 120000). In addition to a reduction of the fluorescence inten
