Informazioni sul prodotto

• Nome: 2-Methyl-5-nitroaniline
• Marchio: Biosynth
• Descrizione: 2-Methyl-5-nitroaniline (2MNA) is a chemical that has been found to be toxic to humans. It is used in wastewater treatment and as a reagent for the production of dyes, rubber products, pesticides, and plastics. 2MNA is oxidized by cytochrome P450 enzymes to create reactive intermediates that react with DNA bases or nucleic acids. 2MNA has also been shown to cause cancer in animals and humans at high doses. It is unclear whether this effect is due to the 2MNA itself or the reactive intermediate formed during metabolism. 2MNA binds to proteins on the surface of cells which may interfere with their function, including enzyme activities and signal transduction pathways. The carcinogenic potential of 2MNA may be due to its ability to form covalent bonds with cellular components such as fatty acids and proteins.
