Papers
Isomer-Specific Determination and Toxic Evaluation of Polychlorinated Biphenyls, Polychlorinated/brominated Dibenzo-p-Dioxins and Dibenzofurans, Polybrominated Biphenyl Ethers, and Extractable Organic Halogen in Carp from the Buffalo River, New York.
Bommanna G. Loganathan,Kurunthachalam Kannan,Isao Watanabe,Masahide Kawano,Kim N. Irvine,Subodh Kumar,Harish C. Sikka +6 more
TL;DR: Elevated concentrations of PCB isomers other than dioxins and furans suggest the need to protect humans from the consumption of PCB-contaminated carp from the Buffalo River.

Formation and persistence of DNA adducts in the liver of brown bullheads exposed to benzo[a]pyrene
TL;DR: The data suggest that brown bullheads metabolically activate BP by the same mechanism as the mammalian systems susceptible to carcinogenic effects of the hydrocarbon.

Biological activity of benzo[e]pyrene. An assessment based on mutagenic activities and metabolic profiles of the polycyclic hydrocarbon and its derivatives.

TL;DR: Lack of formation of a benzo ring epoxide provides a rationale for the inability of benzo(e)pyrene to be metabolically activated by rat liver enzymes to mutagenic products and may contribute to the low carcinogenic activity of benzos(e]pyrene in rodents.

A New and Concise Synthesis of 3-Hydroxybenzo[c]phenanthrene and 12-Hydroxybenzo[g]chrysene, Useful Intermediates for the Synthesis of Fjord-Region Diol Epoxides of Benzo[c]phenanthrene and Benzo[g]chrysene.
TL;DR: The availability of this short and high-yielding regiospecific method for the synthesis of phenols 5 and 6 should allow the preparative-scale synthesis of the fjord-region diol epoxides 3 and 4.

Hepatic Uptake and Metabolism of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin and 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzofuran
TL;DR: The results suggest that TCDF will be far more persistent in rats, and possibly humans, following exposure at low doses which do not significantly induce cytochrome P450 1A1 and/or 1A2.
