Abstract
The mutagenicity of dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) to mammalian cells was investigated using a metabolic activation system. Mutation from 8-azaguanine (8AG) sensitivity to resistance in FM3A cells, a cell line derived from C3H mouse mammary carcinoma, was found only in the presence of dimethylnitrosamine, mouse liver microsomes and cofactors. The different inducibility of the mutation was shown by the use of liver microsomes from different strains of mouse.
