Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons are listed by the U.S. Environmental Proteetion Agency (U.S. EPA) and European Community as priority pollutants due to their mutagenicity and carcinogenicity. PAHs can be formed during natural processes or emitted by anthropogenic activity. [Pg.928]

It is known that many chemicals, e.g. polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons require enzyme modification before becoming biologically active. The production of such so-called "ultimate mutagens or carcinogens" is dependent on a series of inducible enzymes. The induction of these enzymes may increase or decrease the ultimate effect of the parent molecule. These inducible enzyme systems are also under genetic control, raising the question of the existence of susceptible individuals in the general population. [Pg.79]
