Benz[a]anthracene (BA), dibenz[a,h]anthracene (DBA) and dibenzo[a,i]pyrene (DBP) are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) found in incomplete combustion products of fossil fuels, coal tar, and other organic materials. Workers in related industries may be exposed to these chemicals by inhalation. The information
S Nesnow et al.
Carcinogenesis, 15(10), 2225-2231 (1994-10-01)
The major routes of metabolic activation of dibenz[a,h]-anthracene (DBA) have been studied in transformable C3H10T1/2CL8 (C3H10T1/2) mouse embryo fibroblasts in culture. The morphological transforming activities of three potential intermediates formed by metabolism of DBA by C3H10T1/2 cells, trans-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydro-DBA-(DBA-3,4-diol), trans-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydro-DBA-anti-1,2-oxide (DBA-3,4-diol-1,2-oxide)
