A new soluble cyclodextrin derivative 6-O-(2-hydroxybutyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (6-HB-beta-CD) was prepared. Its molecular binding and recognition ability were investigated with the comparison of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD), 2-O-(2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (2-HP-beta-CD), 6-O-(2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (6-HP-beta-CD), and 2-O-(2-hydroxybutyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (2-HB-beta-CD). The relationship between the complex stability constants and the possible

Nitrosopiperidine, sodium nitrite and 1,2 epoxybutane were tested in the Ames agar incorporation assay in an attempt to establish exact criteria for detecting the activity of these weak mutagens. As regards minimum concentrations it was determined that at 500 microgram

Halohydrin hydrogen-halide-lyase, which catalyzes the interconversion of halohydrins to epoxides, purified from a recombinant E. coli was found to catalyze the transformation of 1,2-epoxybutane into beta-hydroxyvaleronitrile in the presence of cyanide. Chloride inhibited competitively the formation of beta-hydroxyvaleronitrile. The enzyme

Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a high production volume chemical frequently stabilized with oxiranes. These oxiranes may be responsible for the mutagenic activity of TCE in Salmonella, which has been occasionally, but not consistently, reported. High purity and oxirane-stabilized TCE samples were
