BENZYL METHYL NITROSAMINE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

N-Nitroso-N-methylbenzylamine induced neoplasia in mice. Mice treated intragastrically with N-Nitroso-N-methylbenzylamine developed multiple tumours. Mice carrying one inactivated Fhit allele (Fhit +?/- mice) are highly susceptible to tumor induction by N-?nitrosomethylbenzylamine.

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also NITROSAMINES.
