The Mutagenic Potential of 4 nitrophenyl bis(2-thienyl)-phosphinate; 4-nitrophenyl 2-furyl(methyl)-phosphinates; 4-cyanophenyl bis(2-furyl)-phosphinate; 4-nitrophenyl bis(2-furyl)-phosphinate.

The mutagenic potential of 4 nitrophenyl bis(2-thienyl)phosphinate (41); 4-nitrophenyl 2-furyl(methyl)phosphinate (72) 4 cyanophenyl bis(2-furyl)phosphinate (82); 4-nitrophenyl bis(2-furyl)phosphinate (87) was assessed by using the Ames Salmonella/Mammalian Microsome Mutagenicity Assay. Tester strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and TA 1538 were exposed to doses ranging from 1 mg/plate to .00032 mg/plate. It was determined that none of the tested substances had mutagenic potential. (Author)
