Liver extract mediated mutagenicity of acrylonitrile.

The mutagenic activity of acrylonitrile vapours towards Salmonella typhimurium strains strictly depends upon the presence of a liver postmitochondrial fraction. The reversion rate varies according to the animal species from which the S9 fraction is obtained as well as to the pretreatment of the animals. The comparatively weak activating effect of the microsomal fraction and the inability of both SKF525A and carbon monoxide to inhibit the S9 mediated mutagenicity of acrylonitrile (ACN) suggest that the cytochrome P-450-dependent monooxygenases do not play a major role in the metabolic activation of ACN into a mutagenic intermediate (s).
