Mutagenic activity of cyclohexene and products of its chlorination

Abstract: Cyclohexene exhibits no mutagenic effect in the Ames test. Products of its transformation (chlorination) produced a mutagenic effect in the Ames test on TA 100 strain without metabolic activation and in the micronucleus test on epithelial cells from mouse urinary bladder and colon. These findings are consistent with epidemiological data on higher incidence of urinary bladder and rectal cancers in subjects consuming chlorinated drinking water from surface water reservoirs.

“…However, similar to the genotoxic potential of by-product in drinking water (Sycheva et al 2000;Maki-Paakkanen, Komulainen, Kronberg, 2004;Sujbert et al 2006), there appears to be a reluctance to utilize this information for extrapolation to potential human health effects. In most instances, the ambient concentration of the compounds producing this activity is below that which is readily detectable by these tests.…”
