We review studies which investigate the presence, using structure-specific analytical methods, of DNA or protein adducts of the carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in human tissues. The analytical methods include high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Although
