Abstract excerpt
The distribution of N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity in 35 tissues of inbred rapid acetylator C57BL/6J and slow acetylator congenic B6.A-NatS mice was determined by incubation of tissue cytosols with 2-aminofluorene or p-aminobenzoic acid followed by HPLC assay. Tissues examined included the gastrointestinal tract, lymphoid tissues, skin, blood components, and other major organs. NAT activity was found in all...
