From the list generated for question 1 above list at least 1
From the list generated for question 1. above, list at least 1 genotoxic carcinogen for each of the following categories: Polyaromatic hydrocarbons Aromatic amines Alkylating agents
Solution
Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH): these are the polycyclic napthalene, anthracene compounds mainly to from benzopyrene derivatives & hexabenzocoronene that trigger “oncogene due to genotoxic nature via mutations” formation finally to generate neoplastic cells
Cyclophosphamide & 2-Naphthylamine and benzo[a]pyrene are two compounds belongs “aromatic amines” that cuase genotoxicity
1-actyl-imidazole and dimethylcarbamyl chloride are the potential mutagens and causes alkylation of nucleotides in genes of cell so that these are alkylating agents
