Seventy-two chemicals were tested for their mutagenic potential in the L5178Y tk+/- mouse lymphoma cell forward mutation assay, using procedures based upon those described by Clive and Spector (Mutat Res 44:269-278, 1975) and Clive et al. (Mutat Res 59:61-108, 1979). Cultures were exposed to the chemicals for 4 hr, then cultured for 2 days before plating in soft agar with or without trifluorothymidine (TFT), 3 micrograms/ml. The chemicals were tested at least twice. Significant responses were obtained with allyl isothiocyanate, p-benzoquinone dioxime, benzyl acetate, 2-biphenylamine HCl, bis(2-chloro-1-methylethyl)ether, cadmium chloride, chlordane, chlorobenzene, chlorobenzilate, 2-chloroethanol, chlorothalonil, cytarabine.HCl, p,p'-DDE, diazinon, 2,6-dichloro-p-phenylenediamine, N,N-diethylthiourea, diglycidylresorcinol ether, 2,4-dimethoxy aniline.HCl, disperse yellow 3, endosulfan, 1,2-epoxyhexadecane, ethyl acrylate, ethyl benzene, ethylene thiourea, F D and C yellow Number 6, furan, heptachlor, isophorone, mercuric chloride, 4,4'-methylenedianiline.2 HCl, methyl viologen, nickel sulfate.6H2O, 4,4'-oxydianiline, pentachloroethane, piperonyl butoxide, propyl gallate, quinoline, rotenone, 2,4,5,6-tetrachloro-4-nitro-anisole, 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane, trichlorfon, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, 2,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde, 1,1,3-trimethyl-2-thiourea, 1-vinyl-3-cyclopetene dioxide, vinyl toluene, and ziram. Apart from 2-biphenylamine.HCl, 2-chloroethanol, disperse yellow 3, ethylene thiourea, FD and C yellow number 6, phenol, and 1,1,2-tetrachloroethane, rat liver S9 mix was not a requirement for these compounds. Chemicals not identified as mutagens were acid red, 11-aminoudecanoic acid, boric acid, 5-chloro-o-toluidine, coumaphos, cyclohexanone, decabromodiphenyl oxide, di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate, ferric chloride, fluometuron, melamine, monuron, phenesterin, phthalimide, reserpine, sodium dodecyl sulfate, 4,4-sulfonyldianiline, tetrachloroethylene, and zearalenone. The assay was incapable of providing a clear indication of whether some chemicals were mutagens; these were benzyl alcohol, 1,4-dichlorobenzene, phenol, succinic acid-2,2-dimethyl hydrazide, and toluene.
