Abstract
1.
1. The oxidation of reduced pyridine nucleotides by microsomal preparations from the abdomen of the adult housefly, Musca domestica, has been examined and characterized.
2.
2. NADPH oxidation is stimulated by exogenous cytochrome-c and inhibited by CO and sulfhydryl inhibitors.
3.
3. The effect of metal ions, synergists and known substrates for microsomal mixed function oxidases is also examined.
4.
4. Added xenobiotics substrates are not required for NADPH oxidation by these preparations.
