The branchial elimination of pentachloroethane and four congeneric polychlorinated biphenyls by rainbow trout was measured using a fish respirometer-metabolism chamber and an adsorption resin column. Branchial elimination was characterized by calculating a set of apparent in vivo blood:water partition coefficients

Outputs from a physiologically based toxicokinetic (PB-TK) model for fish were visualized by mapping time-series data for specific tissues onto a three-dimensional representation of a rainbow trout. The trout representation was generated in stepwise fashion: 1) cross-section images were obtained

Chlorinated compounds such as chlorinated ethylenes and ethanes are serious environmental pollutants. In the present study, we examined whether or not a recombinant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that expresses rat liver cytochrome P450 1A2 (P450 1A2) wild-type and mutant proteins
The decomposition of organic compounds by bacteria has been studied for almost a century, during which time selective enrichment culture has generated microorganisms capable of metabolizing thousands of organic compounds. But attempts to obtain pure cultures of bacteria that can
