It was found that levels of 8-oxodG tended to increase with decreasing sizes of PM; metabolic activation increased the oxidative capacity of PM. A significant positive association between concentrations of c-PAHs bound to PM and levels of 8-oxodG after metabolic activation of EOM samples was observed. The correlation was weaker and non-significant for samples without metabolic activation. It may be concluded that organic extracts of PM were able to induce oxidative damage to DNA in vitro; this ability was increased after S9 metabolic activation of EOM and with decreasing sizes of PM.
