چکیده
Comment #1. Detoxification of Cr(VI) in the organism I started working on this subject more than 30 years ago, by investigating Cr(VI) reduction in blood and liver (e.g., S. De Flora, Nature 271, 455-6, 1978; F.L. Petrilli and S. De Flora, Mutat. Res. 54, 139-147, 1978), in the respiratory tract (e.g., F.L. Petrilli et al., J. Clin. Invest. 77, 1917-24, 1986; S. De Flora et al., Cancer Res. 47, 4740-5, 1987), in the gastric environment (e.g., S. De Flora et al., Mutat. Res. 192, 159-174, 1987), and in other body compartments (reviewed in S. De Flora et al., Carcinogenesis, 18, 531-7, 1997). Some of my papers are correctly reported in the OEHHA Document.
