12/15/1989 - "The biological activity of 2,4,8-trichlorodibenzofuran (2,4,8-TCDF) was tested using 2 endpoints: (a) the promotion of enzyme-altered, preneoplastic foci initiated by diethylnitrosamine (DEN) in livers of weanling female Sprague-Dawley rats; and (b) the induction of aryl hydrocarbon (benzo[a]pyrene) hydroxylase (AHH), a marker for cytochrome P-4501 activity, in livers of adult female Sprague-Dawley rats and in H4IIEC3 rat hepatoma cells.
