Nitroreductive metabolic activation of some carcinogenic nitro heterocyclic food contaminants in rat mammary tissue cellular fractions

Several nitrofurans and nitroimidazoles have been widely used in veterinary medicine. Some of these compounds are breast carcinogens in rodents and their mechanism of action is hypothesized to be related to reactive metabolites generated by nitroreduction and/or via oxygen-dependent redox cycling. T...
