Abstract
The strong Ames test mutagen 3-chloro-4-(dichloromethyl)-5-hydroxy-2-(5H)-furanone (MX) was found to occur in chlorinated drinking and humic waters in sub μg L −1 concentrations. Quantitation by GC/MS using Selective Ion Monitoring in parallel with Ames tests of waters indicated that this furanone accounted for 15 – 30% of the Ames test mutagenicity of both a drinking water and a humic water.
