Abstract
The mutagenic properties of 8 N-nitrosopiperazines were examined in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Forward mutations to canavanine resistance and reversions of his1-7 were induced by N′-methyl-N-nitrosopiperazine, dinitrosopiperazine, 2-methyldinitrosopiperazine, 2,5-dimethyldinitrosopiperazine, and 2,6-dimethyldinitrosopiperazine, in the presence of rat-liver homogenate. N-nitrosopiperazine, 2,3,5,6-tetramethyldinitrosopiperazine, and 4-benzoyl-3,5-dimethyldinitrosopiperazine were non-mutagenic. © 1980.
