Abstract excerpt
Molecular dosimetry for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-DNA adducts, genetic predisposition to cancer, and their interrelationships are under study in numerous laboratories. This report describes a modified 32P-postlabeling assay for the detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-DNA adducts that uses immunoaffinity chromatography to enhance chemical specificity and quantitative reliability. The assay...
