Evaluating the potential neurotoxicity of hexanedione isomers: An in vitro approach
2008-01-01
Abstract excerpt
2,5-hexanedione (2,5HD) is the neurotoxic metabolite of the aliphatic hydrocarbon n-Hexane. The isomers, 2,3-hexanedione (2,3HD) and 3,4-hexanedione (3,4HD) are used as food additives. Although the neurotoxicity of 2,5HD is well established, there are no human data of the possible toxicity of the 2,3- and 3,4- isomers. MTT and flow cytometry were utilised to determine the cytotoxicity of hexanedione isomers in neu...
