beta-O-Glucoside and beta-O-glucuronide conjugates of 1-hydroxypyrene (OHPy) were found in the leaves of four kinds of woody plant; cherry, maple, ginkgo, and camphor. The conjugates were quantified by measuring OHPy liberated from the water-soluble fraction of leaves treated with beta-O-glucosidase and beta-O-glucuronidase. Concentrations of beta-O-glucuronide and beta-O-glucoside ranged from 0 to 358 and from 0 to 129 pmol/g of fresh leaves, respectively, in monthly measurement over a period of 1 year. The amounts of glucuronide conjugates were greater than those of glucoside conjugates in most plants examined. Both conjugates were detected at the highest concentrations in summer to autumn. For most plants, the total amounts of the conjugates were greater than that of free OHPy in the leaves in all seasons, and the differences reached 30-fold in maple leaves in September. From these results, the source of the OHPy conjugates in leaves and their implications are discussed.
