Identifying agents that block tumor initiation is a goal of cancer prevention. The ability of a chemically varied group of agents to induce various drug metabolizing genes in livers of rats was examined. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated for 7 days

The complexes of antioxidant ethoxyquin (1,2-dihydro-6-ethoxy-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline; EQ) with rutin or quercetin (EQ-R and EQ-Q, respectively) were studied in human lymphocytes for genotoxic and antioxidant activities with the use of the comet assay and micronucleus test. The study was undertaken to
Journal of food protection, 74(9), 1574-1580 (2011-09-10)
The feed additive ethoxyquin (EQ) is a commonly used synthetic antioxidant preservative in animal feeds. In farmed Atlantic salmon fillets, EQ residues are present, both as the parent compound and as EQ derivatives. One of the main EQ derivates in
Food and chemical toxicology : an international journal published for the British Industrial Biological Research Association, 46(5), 1834-1843 (2008-03-11)
The biological fate of the fish feed additive, ethoxyquin (EQ) was examined in the muscle of Atlantic salmon during 12 weeks of feeding followed by a 2 weeks depuration period. Parent EQ (1,2-dihydro-6-ethoxy-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline), quinone imine (2,6-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethyl-6-quinolone), de-ethylated EQ (6-hydroxy-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline) and
Drug metabolism and disposition: the biological fate of chemicals, 38(2), 341-346 (2009-11-19)
The aldo-keto reductase (AKR) phase I drug metabolism enzyme superfamily is implicated in detoxification or bioactivation of a wide variety of carbonyl-bearing compounds. In this study, we have used antibodies raised against purified recombinant rat AKR isoforms 1A3, 1B4, 1C9
