Description

7H-Benzo[c]fluorene is an aromatic compound that is used as a biomarker for human metabolism. It is mainly excreted in urine and can be detected in blood and tissues. The redox potential of 7H-benzo[c]fluorene varies from -0.3 to -1.5 V, which indicates that it can be oxidized easily. The metabolic profile of 7H-benzo[c]fluorene has been determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The metabolites were identified by comparison with those found in rat liver microsomes, human liver microsomes, and human liver mitochondria. 7H-Benzo[c]fluorene was shown to inhibit the activity of p450 enzymes involved in the production of serotonin, leading to an increase in serotonergic system activity. This inhibition may lead to cancer development. Linear
