Abstract
The rat hepatocarcinogen nitrosodimethylamine and the esophageal carcinogens nitrosomethylbenzylamine and nitrosomethylamylamine were shown to produce chromosomal damage, as manifested by micronucleus formation, in their target tissues. There was cross-reactivity in the two tissues, however, at high dose levels. Nitrosodiethylamine, which produces tumors in both the liver and esophagus in the rat, also produced micronuclei in both tissues.
