pp'DDT was converted to DDD 1-1 dichloro-2,2 bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethane, by treated 12 000 x g supernatant preparations from grey mullet livers. The anaerobic reductive dechlorination occurs whether or not exogenous NADPH and riboflavin is added after a heat pretreatment, otherwise the dechlorination is lowered when the cofactors are not added.
