Food additives & contaminants. Part A, Chemistry, analysis, control, exposure & risk assessment, 34(7), 1140-1152 (2017-05-18)
A gas-chromatographic single-quadrupole analytical method for the analysis of the 16 priority European Union (EU) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in food is presented. The method fulfils the request of Regulation EU 836/2011 for an analytical procedure to be used for

Chemico-biological interactions, 63(3), 227-237 (1987-01-01)
The metabolites of benzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF) as formed in vitro using the 9000 X g supernatant from Aroclor-pretreated rats have been identified. Two dihydrodiols, trans-4,5-dihydro-4,5-dihydroxyBjF and trans-9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxyBjF have been identified as major metabolites by comparison of their spectral and chromatographic properties

The tumor initiating activities on mouse skin of benzo[b]fluoranthene, (B[b]F), benzo[j]fluoranthene (B[j]F), benzo[k]fluoranthene (B[k]F] and three of their dihydrodiols, 9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxybenzo[b]fluoranthene (B[b]F-9,10-diol), 9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene (B[j]F-9,10-diol), and 8,9-dihydro-8,9-dihydroxybenzo[k]fluoranthene (B[k]F-8,9-diol) were evaluated. Among the parent hydrocarbons, B[b]F was the most potent tumor initiator, with

Chemical research in toxicology, 6(1), 117-124 (1993-01-01)
Studies have demonstrated that the metabolic activation of benzo[j]fluoranthene (B[j]F) to a genotoxic agent proceeds through the formation of either the trans-4,5-dihydrodiol (B[j]F-4,5-diol) or the trans-9,10-dihydrodiol (B[j]F-9,10-diol) metabolite of B[j]F. Using 32P-postlabeling analysis, the profiles of DNA adducts formed in

The metabolism of benzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF) in vivo in mouse skin was investigated. trans-4,5-Dihydro-4,5-dihydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF-4,5-diol) and trans-9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene (BjF-9,10-diol) have been identified as major metabolites. In addition, 4- and 10-hydroxybenzo[j]fluoranthene and benzo[j]fluoranthen-4,5-dione have been tentatively identified among the metabolites formed in vivo
