title: High-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of polycyclic hydrocarbon metabolite distributions.
abstract: Analytical separations and quantification of eight metabolites of benzo[a]pyrene, nine metabolites of 7-methylbenz[c]acridine and nine metabolites of dibenz[a,j]acridine have been carried out on two reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic systems using 3- and 10-microns C8 packings. Quantitative results for the distributions of primary metabolites for the two systems closely agreed and showed that up to 70% savings in chromatographic time could be achieved with the 3 micron particle size columns.
