Three structurally related compounds, 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine (COP), 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine (NOP) and p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride (PPD), are used in fur dyes, inks and hair coloring formulations. COP has been reported to be carcinogenic in both rats and mice. NOP and PPD are non-carcinogens, but
The monocyclic aromatic amine 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine (4-C-o-PDA), a known mutagen and mouse hepatocarcinogen, was tested for its in vivo mutagenic potential in the Big Blue transgenic mouse assay system. Genomic DNA was isolated from liver tissue of control and treated animals

Three pairs of structurally similar carcinogenic/non-carcinogenic chemicals were tested for in vivo genotoxic activity in B6C3F1 mice. The carcinogenic/non-carcinogenic pairs, respectively, were o-toluidine hydrochloride/o-anthranilic acid, 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine/4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine, and 3-(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride/2-(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride. Bone marrow cells from mice given intraperitoneal injections of up
