Mutagenicity of selected functionalized benz(c)acridines and a benz(a)phenazine in the Salmonella typhimurium/microsome assay.

Abstract:

:Five functionalized benz(c)acridines - 5,6-dimethylbenz(c)acridine; 5,6,7-trimethylbenz(c)acridine; 7-chloro-5,6-dimethylbenz(c)acridine; 7-amino-5,6-dimethylbenz(c)acridine; 7-oxo-5,6-dimethylbenz(c)-acridine and 5,6-dimethylbenz(a)phenazine - were tested for mutagenic activity in the Ames Salmonella typhimurium assay. Compounds were initially screened by spot tests with 5 tester strains and both plate incorporation and pre-incubation assays were performed when the results of the tests were positive or weakly positive. All assays were done with and without S9 activation. 7-Amino-5, 6-dimethylbenz(c)acridine and 7-chloro-5, 6-dimethylbenz(c)acridine were found to be moderately mutagenic with the 3 frameshift strains TA1537, TA98, and TA97.
