Abstract: Microsomal hydroxylation of aniline in midguts of the southern armyworm, Spodoptera eridania, was found to differ in its requirements for optimal in vitro activity from those of armyworm and rat liver pchloro N-methylaniline Ndemethylase and rat liver aniline hydroxylase. Apparent K,.values for armyworm aniline hydroxylase were substantially higher than those for rat liver aniline hydroxylase and the Ndemethylaseenzymes. The armyworm aniline hydroxylase wasinhibited by several mixed-function oxidase inhibitors as wellas by aldrin and nicotine and was highly inducible bypentamethylbenzene and phenobarbital.
