1. The effects of various potential inhibitors, activators and inducers on the metabolism of the comutagen 2-amino-3-methylpyridine (2A3MP) by rabbit hepatic microsomes and S9 supernatants have been studied. 2. The 1-N-oxidation of 2A3MP to 2-amino-3-methylpyridine-1-N-oxide (2A3M-PNO) was inhibited by 2,4-dichloro-6-phenylphenoxyethylamine

Two novel proton transfer compounds were prepared between 2,4-dichloro-5-sulphamoylbenzoic acid (lasamide) (Hsba) and ethylenediamine (en), namely ethane-1,2-diaminium 2,4-dichloro-5-sulphamoylbenzoate (1), and also between Hsba and 2-amino-3-methylpyridine (2-amino-3-picoline) (amp), namely 2-amino-3-methylpyridinium 2,4-dichloro-5-sulphamoylbenzoate (2). All these were characterised by elemental, spectral (IR and

The in vitro metabolism of 2-hydroxylamino-3-methylpyridine has been investigated using arochlor 1254 pretreated rat S9 mixtures. 2-Hydroxylamino-3-methylpyridine is rapidly converted to the parent amine 2-amino-3-methylpyridine. No further oxidation products of 2-hydroxylamino-3-methylpyridine (i.e. nitroso or nitro) were detected under the HPLC

The metabolism of the comutagen 2-amino-3-methylpyridine has been studied in vitro using rat and rabbit hepatic preparations. 2-Amino-3-methylpyridine-N-oxide, 2-amino-3-hydroxymethylpyridine and 2-amino-5-hydroxy-3-methylpyridine were formed by both rat and rabbit hepatic preparations. No evidence was obtained for the formation of the corresponding

The metabolism of 2-amino-3-methylpyridine (2A3MP) in vitro has been investigated using the rat, rabbit, dog, marmoset, guinea pig and hamster hepatic microsomes and S9 supernatants (10,000 g fraction). Species differences were observed in the in vitro formation of 2-amino-3-methylpyridine-N-oxide (2A3MPNO)
