Abstract excerpt
4-Aminobiphenyl (4-ABP) is a human and mouse bladder carcinogen. Epidemiological studies have shown that individuals with a slow acetylator phenotype, especially those exposed to high levels of carcinogenic aromatic amines, show an increased susceptibility to bladder cancer. In order to determine...
