15618705 Shimada T, Shindo M, Miyazawa M: Species differences in the metabolism of (+)- and (-)-limonenes and their metabolites, carveols and carvones, by cytochrome P450 enzymes in liver microsomes of mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, monkeys, and humans. Drug Metab Pharmacokinet. 2002;17(6):507-15.

CYP2C enzymes were suggested to play major roles in metabolizing (+)-carveol to (+)-carvone and (+)-carvone to (+)-carveol by liver microsomes, since the activities were inhibited significantly by anti-human CYP2C9 antibodies in these animal species.
