Enhanced uptake and degradation of EDB by transgenic tobacco containing P450 2E1

Plant	Percentage EDB loss*	Br− released, μg/ml†
Null vector controls	63.2  ±  13.3	0.054  ± 0.058
3-1	98.1  ±  1.1	0.243  ± 0.142

Four 3-1 plants and three vector control plants were exposed to EDB for 5 days, and the hydroponic solutions were analyzed. Data shown are from one experiment. Similar results were obtained in three independent experiments.
