Cytogenetic studies in rats of cyclohexylamine, a metabolite of cyclamate.

Cyclohexylamine, the major known metabolite of cyclamate, was tested in vivo for possible cytogenetic effects. In rats injected with this metabolite, there was a direct relation between dose concentration and percentage of spermatogonial and bone marrow cells showing chromosomal breaks. Single chromatid breaks predominated with infrequent exchange figures.

Cycasin: detection of associated mutagenic activity in vivo.

Cycasin and its lagycone, methylazoxymethanol, increase the mutant frequency of Salmonella typhimurium histidine auxotrophs when tested in the hostmediated assay. As expected, the degree of cycasin-related mutagenic activity depends on the facility with which the compound can be enzymatically deglucosylated by the normal intestinal flora.
