Abstract excerpt
Contaminants in municipal drinking water, specifically total trihalomethanes (TTHMs), are mutagenic. Exposures to TTHMs have been associated with urothelial carcinoma (UC) in both people and dogs. Mutations in the BRAF gene and other genomic copy number aberrations detected in voided urothelial cells with commercial CADET BRAF and BRAF-PLUS tests have also been associated with the presence of UC in dogs. However,...
