Comparative air measurements of toluene diisocyanate (TDI) were performed in a 5.6 m3 standard atmosphere and at a TDI flexible foam plant. Air samples were collected in midget impinger flasks containing 9-(N-methyl-amino-methyl)-anthracene (MAMA) in toluene and on 13-mm glass-fiber filters

Using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry for detection of hemoglobin adducts, and 32P-postlabelling for DNA adducts, we examined macromolecular binding in Fischer-344 rats administered 2,4-or 2,6-toluene diamine (TDA). The dose-response and correlative relationship between the two macromolecules were investigated over a range

Detecting genotoxicity in the liver is considered an effective approach for predicting hepatocarcinogenicity, as many genotoxic chemicals in vivo may act as hepatocarcinogens in rodents. Here, a genotoxic rodent hepatocarcinogen, 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride (1,2-DMH), and a genotoxic (Ames positive) noncarcinogen, 2,6-diaminotolunene

The aromatic amines 2,4-diaminotoluene (2,4-DAT) and 2,6-diaminotoluene (2,6-DAT) are structural isomers that have been extensively studied for their mutagenic and carcinogenic characteristics. Both compounds are rapidly absorbed after oral administration and are equally mutagenic in the Ames test; however, 2,4-DAT

Mutation research, 381(2), 251-258 (1998-01-22)
The carcinogenicity of aniline-based aromatic amines is poorly reflected by their activity in short-term mutagenicity assays such as the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation (Ames) assay. More information about the mechanism of action of such carcinogens is needed. Here we report
