Abstract
In acute oral studies, the effect of bromobenzene on hepatic microsomal enzymes was investigated. Neither glucuronyltransferases nor cytochrome c reductase showed significant changes. Most of the mixed-function oxidases studied were inhibited with the exception of ketamine-N-demethylase. The data indicate that bromobenzene or its epoxide acts on cytochrome P-450 but not on all cytochrome P-450 species, and does not affect the reductase and the glucuronyltransferases. Microsomal lipoperoxidation and microsomal H2O2 formation were increased.
