Abstract
The hair-dye component N-methylamino-2-nitro-4- N′, N′-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminobenzene was investigated for mutagenic activity in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA100, TA1537, TA1538 and TA98. The testing was performed in the absence and in the presence of a rat-liver microsomal activation system induced by Aroclor 1254. Our results indicate that N-methylamino-2-nitro-4- N′, N′-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminobenzene does not induce mutations in Salmonella typhimurium strains, either in the absence or in the presence of the metabolic activation system. The purity of the compound was controlled by utilizing high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and thin-layer chromatography (TLC).
