The haloacetonitrile, dibromoacetonitrile (DBAN), is a direct-acting genotoxic agent that has been detected in drinking water. In a time course study, male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with DBAN (75 mg/kg PO), and killed at 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hr

The subchronic toxicity of dibromoacetonitrile (DBAN), a disinfection by-product in drinking water, was studied in the rat. Male (180+/-18 g) and female (152+/-9 g) Sprague-Dawley rats (10 animals per group) were fed DBAN in organic-free distilled water at concentrations of

Dibromoacetonitrile (DBAN) is a disinfection byproduct of chlorination of drinking water. Epidemiological studies indicate that it might present a potential hazard to human health. The present work provides evidence for DBAN activation to cyanide (CN(-)) by the hypoxanthine (HX)/xanthine oxidase
