M. Blahova et al., MUTAGENICITY OF 4-NITROQUINOLINE N-OXIDE AFTER ITS COMPLEXATION WITH COPPER(II) 2-CHLOROPHENOXYACETATE, Folia microbiologica, 42(4), 1997, pp. 401-402
Using the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97, TA100 an
d TA102 it was found that the mutagenicity of 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide
was much lower than that of the chlorophenoxyacetato(1-)-O,O']bis(4-n
itroquinoline N-oxide-O)dicopper(II) complex.
