Abstract excerpt
The genetic constitution of mammalian enzymes involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics is one of the important factors responsible for large inter-individual differences in the rate of biotransformation and consequently the magnitude of genotoxic effects exerted in target tissues. The present study examines the mutagenic activation of 2-aminofluorene (AF) with hepatic post-mitochondrial (S9) preparations derived...
