## Abstract Benzo[__a__]pyrene diol epoxide (BPDE) was reacted __in vitro__ with (2'βdeoxy)nucleotides and with calf thymus DNA. The modified DNA was enzymatically hydrolyzed to the 5'βmonophosphate nucleotides using deoxyribonuclease I (DNAβase I), nuclease P1 and snake venom phosphodiesterase (SV
The potent carcinogenicity of dibenzo [a,l ]pyrene (DB[a,l ]P) in mouse skin is associated with an inflammatory response and a striking epidermal hyperplasia. The mechanism of these tissue responses is not known. However, a recent study has shown DB[a,l ]P to be a contact sensitizer. In view of the
