title: [Correlation of the mutagenic and carcinogenic activity of various aromatic amines].
abstract: Six aromatic amines were studied for their mutagenic activity using Salmonella typhimurium TA 100 and TA 98. 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine, ortho-tolidine, benzidine, 2-naphthylamine proved to be mutagenic, while aminotobias acid and 2,2',4,4'-tetraaminodiphenyl did not show mutagenic activity. Chronic experiments on mice and rats using these compounds revealed a close correlation between carcinogenicity and mutagenicity.
