• Substances that increase the risk of NEOPLASMS in humans or animals. Both genotoxic chemicals, which affect DNA directly, and nongenotoxic chemicals, which induce neoplasms by other mechanism, are included.
• Chemical agents that increase the rate of genetic mutation by interfering with the function of nucleic acids. A clastogen is a specific mutagen that causes breaks in chromosomes.
• The metabolism of 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) was studied in the male rat using ... 14C and 3H at positions 2 and 5 of the molecule, respectively. Adult male Fischer 344 rats were administered [2-14C]IQ or [5-3H]IQ by oral gavage at ... 20 or 40 mg/kg bw. Rats were also given [2-14C]IQ in the diet at ... 300 ppm for 2 days and after administration of unlabelled IQ (300 ppm) in the diet for approximately 6.5 wk for an additional 2 days. In the initial 48 hr following oral administration of 20 or 40
• Mixed and pure cultures of human intestinal anaerobic bacteria metabolized IQ to IQ-7-one.
