1 PCDFs were about a thousand times more potent than PCBs (Kanechlor-500) as inducers of cytochrome P-450. Dibenzofurans, Polychlorinated cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily g, polypeptide 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Rats given 10 microgram/kg of PCDFs intraperitoneally for 3 days showed significantly increased hepatic cytochrome P-450 levels. Dibenzofurans, Polychlorinated cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily g, polypeptide 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 Following three daily doses of PCDFs (100 microgram/kg), cytochrome P-450 level and p-nitroanisole demethylase activity remained elevated for over 15 days, with a decrease to control levels after 30 days. Dibenzofurans, Polychlorinated cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily g, polypeptide 1 Rattus norvegicus
