Liver microsomes con­tain cytochromes P450, flavin-monooxygenases, carboxyl­esterases, epoxide hydrolase, UDP-glu­cur­ono­syl­transferases and other drug-metabolizing enzymes, and are intended for use in in vitro studies of xenobiotic metabolism.

The S9 fraction is a mixture of microsomes and cytosol. Accordingly, it contains a wide variety of Phase 1 and Phase 2 enzymes including P450 enzymes, flavin-mono­oxygenases, carboxyl­esterases, epoxide hydrolase, UDP-glucuronosyl­transferases, sulfotransferases, methyl­transferases, acetyl­trans­ferases, gluta­thione S-trans­fer­ases and other drug-metabolizing enzymes.

Liver cytosol contains many xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes including carboxylesterases, soluble epoxide hydrolases, alcohol dehydrogenases, aldehydes oxidases, xanthine oxidases, diamine oxidases, sulfotransferases, glutathione S-transferases, etc.

Product Details

NOMENCLATURE Crl:CD-1® (ICR) BR ORIGIN The original group of Swiss mice that served as progenitors of this stock consisted of two male and seven female albino mice derived from a non-inbred stock in the laboratory of Dr. de Coulon, Centre Anticancereux Romand, Lausanne, Switzerland. These animals were imported into the United States by Dr. Clara Lynch of the Rockefeller Institute in 1926. The Hauschka Ha/ICR stock was initiated in 1948 at the Institute for Cancer Research in Philadelphia from "Swiss" mice of Rockefeller origin. To Dr. Edward Mirand of Roswell Park Memorial Institute where they were designated as HaM/ICR. To CRL in 1959 and caesarean rederived that same year. COAT COLOR Albino.
