title: Benzo[a]pyrene metabolism in marine fish and some analytical aspects of its metabolites.
abstract: In interspecies comparisons of benzo[a]pyrene metabolism, standardized procedures in the analysis of the metabolites must be established. Technical problems arising in metabolite analysis are discussed, and data are presented showing the activities of the mixed function oxygenase and transferase systems in phenobarbital- and 3-methylcholanthrene-induced mullet and killifish.
