To clarify the mutagenic potential of surface soil in residential areas in Kyoto city, surface soil samples were collected twice or three times from 12 sites, and their organic extracts were examined by the Ames/Salmonella assay. Almost all (>92%) samples showed mutagenicity in TA98 without and with S9 mix, and 8/25 (32%) samples showed high (1000–10,000revertants/g of soil) or extreme (>10,000revertants/g...
We previously identified 2-[2-(acetylamino)-4-amino-5-methoxyphenyl]-5-amino-7-bromo-4-chloro-2H-benzotriazole (PBTA) congeners as major mutagens in water concentrates from several rivers that flow in three different areas, i.e. Kyoto, Aichi, and Fukui Prefectures, in Japan. In synthesis studies, these PBTAs were shown to be formed from corresponding dinitrophenylazo dyes via non-chlorinated derivatives...
We have previously isolated five mutagens in blue rayon-adsorbed substances from water at a site below sewage plants in the Nishitakase River, in Kyoto, Japan, and identified two of them as 2-phenylbenzotriazole derivatives, 2-[2-(acetylamino)-4-[bis(2-methoxyethyl)amino]-5-methoxyphenyl]-5-amino-7-b romo-4-chloro-2H-benzotriazole (PBTA-1) and 2-[2-(acetylamino)-4-[(2-cyanoethyl)ethylamino]-5-methoxyphenyl]-5-amino-7-b...
