Abstract
N-Nitroso-2,6-demethylmorpholine (NDMM) administered intraperitoneally to Syrian hamsters was metabolized to N-nitroso-bis(2-hydroxypropy)(2-oxopropyl)amine(HPOP) and N-nitroso-bis(2-hydroxpropyl)amine (BHP) which were identified in blood and urine. The potent pancreatic carcinogen N-nitroso-bis(2-oxoproply)amine was previously shown to form the same metabolites. Preliminary results indicate that NDMM also induces pancreatic and other tumors in Syrian hamsters, similar to those found following BHP treatment.
