Abstract excerpt
To aid in the selection of chemical candidates for in vivo tests, the mutagenicity of 5 thiazole compounds was evaluated in the Salmonella plate incorporation assay and mouse lymphoma L5178Y TK+/- assay. Two of the compounds, 2-thiazolamine and 3-methyl-5-isothiazolamine, were positive in both assays; and one, thiazole, was negative. With the other 2 compounds the results were nonconcordant:...
