Abstract excerpt
The 3 compounds 4CMB, BC and 4HMB were tested using the "Ames' Salmonella assay. 4CMB produced a strong mutagenic response; no evidence of mutagenic activity was obtained with BC and 4HMB. Urine from mice treated with the 3 compounds was also tested. None of the urine samples produced a mutagenic response.
