Diflubenzuron, one of a new class of pesticides believed to act via inhibition of chitin synthesis in the developing insect cuticle, was tested for possible mutagenic activity using the micronucleus test in mice, the L5178Y mouse lymphoma forward mutation test at the thymidine kinase locus, and the Ames Salmonella/microsome reverse mutation test. No mutagenic effect was found.
除虫脲是一类新型农药,据信其作用机制是抑制昆虫发育过程中表皮几丁质的合成。使用小鼠微核试验、L5178Y小鼠淋巴瘤胸苷激酶位点正向突变试验以及埃姆斯沙门氏菌/微粒体反向突变试验对其潜在诱变活性进行了检测。未发现诱变作用。
