description

Abstract Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis has been used to demonstrate that pretreatment of rats with isosafrole results in the formation of a novel species of cytochrome P-450 (mol. wt. 54,000) quite distinct from that induced by phenobarbitone pretreatment (mol. wt. 50,000) or 3-methylcholanthrene (mol. wt. 58,000).
