I am excited to share with you the latest in our groups publications - "Interspecies Differences in 6PPD-Quinone Toxicity Across Seven Fish Species: Metabolite Identification and Semiquantification". I, along side with my team, were able to identify two metabolites of 6PPD-Quinone and relate their relative abundance to either sensitivity or exposure concentration. Given this information, 6PPD-Quinone is very likely the toxicant, rather than its metabolites and should therefore be considered detoxified by the body. This information should aid with the environmental monitoring of this contaminant and fish, and may serve as a biomarker of exposure. Read more at: https://lnkd.in/dXGjUSAK
