Thioethers are effective scavengers of electrophilic metabolites derived from the hepatocarcinogen N-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (van den Goorbergh et al., 1987). In this study 2 of these thioethers, 4-(methylthio)benzoic acid (MTB) and its methylester, methyl 4-(methylthio)benzoate (MMTB), have been tested for their ability
