Carcinogenesis, 3(8), 911-915 (1982-01-01)
A comparison was made of the carcinogenic effectiveness of some cyclic nitrosamines containing oxygen in the ring. The compounds were administered to F344 rats at approximately equimolar concentrations in drinking water. Nitrosomorpholine, nitroso-1,3-oxazolidine and nitrosotetrahydro-1,3-oxazine were of similar potency and

The effects of prolonged administration of the diuretic amiloride on hepatocarcinogenesis induced by N-nitrosomorpholine (NNM) and the labeling index of the liver were investigated in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Rats were given drinking water containing NNM for 8 weeks and received

Nitrites are ubiquitous environmental contaminants present in drinking water and foods. Nitrosamines can be formed endogenously from nitrate and nitrite and secondary amines or may be present in food, tobacco smoke, and drinking water. The major goal of this work

Carcinogenesis and Epigenetics

Cancer research has revealed that the classical model of carcinogenesis, a three step process consisting of initiation, promotion, and progression, is not complete.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
