    • Phenol and 14 substituted-phenols were tested for their ability to impair epithelial cell membrane integrity in WB rat liver cells as determined by an increase in lactate dehydrogenase release. Two quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) regression equations were developed which showed that separate mechanisms of phenolic cytotoxicity are important - nonspecific toxicity due to hydrophobicity and formation of phenoxyl radicals. The equations most predictive of phenol toxicity are… CONTINUE READING
