A new soluble cyclodextrin derivative 6-O-(2-hydroxybutyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (6-HB-beta-CD) was prepared. Its molecular binding and recognition ability were investigated with the comparison of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD), 2-O-(2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (2-HP-beta-CD), 6-O-(2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (6-HP-beta-CD), and 2-O-(2-hydroxybutyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (2-HB-beta-CD). The relationship between the complex stability constants and the possible

Nitrosopiperidine, sodium nitrite and 1,2 epoxybutane were tested in the Ames agar incorporation assay in an attempt to establish exact criteria for detecting the activity of these weak mutagens. As regards minimum concentrations it was determined that at 500 microgram

Halohydrin hydrogen-halide-lyase, which catalyzes the interconversion of halohydrins to epoxides, purified from a recombinant E. coli was found to catalyze the transformation of 1,2-epoxybutane into beta-hydroxyvaleronitrile in the presence of cyanide. Chloride inhibited competitively the formation of beta-hydroxyvaleronitrile. The enzyme

In vivo and in vitro methodologies that have employed the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as genetic indicator have been utilized to investigate the mutagenicity of two trichloroethylene (TCE) samples of pure and technical grade. Mutagenicity assays were also performed on two
Based on the findings of Nagao et al [1978] that phenacetin is negative in the standard Ames test with Aroclor induced rat S-9 and positive with hamster S-9, the test was performed with a mixture of rat/hamster S-9. Phenacetin was
