title: Metabolism of N-2-fluorenylacetamide in X/Gf mice: lack of correlation between biochemical interaction and carcinogenicity.
abstract: A comparative study of the metabolism of the carcinogen N-2-fluorenylacetamide by mice of the X/Gf strain (resistant to the tumorigenic action) and the NiH Swiss strain (susceptible to the tumorigenic action) showed slight but not outstanding differences in metabolic patterns. The activated metabolite N-hydroxy-N-2-fluorenylacetamide was excreted by both strains, and the levels of carcinogens or metabolites bound to liver macromolecular constituents were comparable in the X/Gf and NiH Swiss mice.
