General description

N-Nitrosoanabasine or NAB is a potent carcinogen and biomarker of exposure to cigarette smoke. It′s found in a variety of tobacco products including chewing tobacco and snuff. This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable for use in LC-MS/MS or GC/MS methods for nicotine testing, environmental monitoring, or clinical and diagnostic testing of nicotine biomarkers.

Application

  • Inhibitory effects in toxicological studies: (S)-N-Nitrosoanabasine (NAB) has been used in research to investigate its inhibitory effects on the metabolism of the tobacco-specific nitrosamine, NNK, by cytochrome P450 2A13, highlighting its utility in carcinogenicity studies and its role as a research chemical in understanding biochemical pathways involved in cancer (Liu et al., 2016).

A M Idris et al.
Carcinogenesis, 13(6), 1001-1005 (1992-06-01)
Exposure to tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNA) has been measured in the saliva of 12 users of Sudanese oral snuff (toombak). Using GC coupled to thermal energy analysis, levels of N'-nitrosonornicotine (NNN), N'-nitrosoanatabine (NAT), N'-nitrosoanabasine (NAB) and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) were measured before

Carcinogenesis, 3(10), 1195-1199 (1982-01-01)
We compared the metabolism in the F-344 rat of the moderately potent esophageal carcinogen N'-nitrosonornicotine (NNN, 2'-(3-pyridyl)-N-nitrosopyrrolidine) and its weakly active homologue N'-nitrosoanabasine (NAB, 2'-(3-pyridyl)-N-nitrosopiperidine). Urine was the major pathway of excretion for both nitrosamines. The major urinary metabolites of

This research assessed the relationship between the deliveries of carcinogenic tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) "tar" ratings of US commercial cigarettes. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to assess the explanatory power of FTC tar, the

Irina Stepanov et al.
Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 50(10), 2793-2797 (2002-05-02)
Tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNA) are among the most important and abundant strongly carcinogenic agents in unburned tobacco. It has been established that 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) induces lung tumors in rodents independent of the route of administration. N'-Nitrosonornicotine (NNN) causes tumors of the
