  • N.D., not determined; catalytic activity at or below limit of detection.

  • a N-dechloroethylation as a percentage of total metabolism at Vmax.

  • b Data are based on n = 4 independent experiments (4-hydroxylation) or n = 3 (N-dechloroethylation).

  • c Data are based on n = 2 independent experiments.
