Abstract

Nitrogen dioxide induced SOS functions in Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli K-12 and was mutagenic in Escherichia coli WP2. When a rabbit was administered aminopyrine intravenously and administered nitrogen dioxide by inhalation, N-nitrosodimethylamine was detected in its blood. Analysis was conducted with 15N-nitrosodimethylamine as an internal standard by a combination of capillary gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Accompanying administration of cystamine increased the blood concentration of N-nitrosodimethylamine in the rabbit, suggesting inhibition of its metabolism. Concurrent sulfur trioxide inhalation increased N-nitrosodimethylamine formation in the rabbit.
