The mutagenic and genotoxic potential of four pesticides viz. captan, foltaf, phosphamidon and furadan was evaluated by the Ames mutagenicity assay and their DNA damaging ability on radiation repair defective E. coli K-12 strains respectively. The mutagenic spectrum revealed captan

The cytotoxicity of captafol, a phthalimide-derived fungicide, was evaluated in IB-RS-2 cells. Captafol at 0.12-1.0 microgram/ml blocks the cell multiplication. This effect is concentration-dependent, only partially reversible and the degree of inhibition increases with time. The synthesis of DNA and
Effects of quinoline and captafol, both of which are hemangiocarcinogenic agents, were investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Male SHR and Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY), the parent strain of SHR, were administered quinoline (0.2%) or captafol (0.15%) supplemented in the

Forty-six farmers were patch tested to determine whether their dermatitis was secondary to an occupational allergen. Twenty-eight had a positive patch test of which 23 were thought relevant (definite or probable). In 20 of these cases, the allergen(s) was considered
Japanese journal of cancer research : Gann, 84(3), 230-236 (1993-03-01)
In a development trial for an initiation bioassay system, 7 known carcinogens and 1 suspected carcinogen were examined. In experiment 1, group 1 animals were initially subjected to partial hepatectomy (PH) 12 h before administration of diethylnitrosamine, 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]-quinoline (IQ), captafol
