| Abstract |
The in-vitro capacity of hepatic microsomal preparations to metabolise toxaphene-derived chlorinated bornanes (CHBs) increased in the order sperm whale < whitebeaked dolphin, albatross << harbour seal. The congeners CHB-26 and CHB50 were persistent to oxidative biotransformation. The NCI mass spectra of a mono- and a tri-hydroxy metabolite of CHB-32, and a mono-hydroxy metabolite of CHB-62 were obtained. The number of peaks in the toxaphene residue in tissues of the same animals was inversely related to the in-vitro biotransformation capacity. In the mutatox assay, toxaphene was sometimes directly mutagenic but metabolism did not appear to increase the mutagenicity. |
