Abstract excerpt
Metabolites of the human carcinogen 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP) form hemoglobin (Hb) adducts, which represent a useful biomarker for exposure. However, not every individual responds to a similar degree to 4-ABP exposure, and variations in 4-ABP-Hb adduct formation might be explained by genetic polymorphisms in genes coding for enzymes involved in 4-ABP metabolism. 4-ABP-Hb adducts were measured in blood samples from...
