Nitrofluoranthenes (NFs) are mutagenic and carcinogenic environmental pollutants found in incomplete combustion products and urban air particulate. We have studied both oxidative and reductive metabolism in vitro of different NF isomers mediated by subcellular rat liver fractions. Under aerobic conditions

The structures of selected phenolic metabolites of 2- and 3-nitrofluoranthene have been analyzed. 1H NMR spectral analysis at 500 MHz using one- and two-dimensional methods proves that the site of hydroxy substitution in two metabolites previously reported as 3-nitrofluoranthen-8-ol and

We investigated the metabolism of 3-nitrofluoranthene by filamentous fungus, Cunninghamella elegans ATCC 36112. Cunninghamella elegans metabolized about 72% of the 3-nitro[3,4-14C]fluoranthene added during 144 h of incubation to 2 major metabolites. These metabolites were separated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography
