• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Chloro-2-methylaniline (CMA) is a chemical that belongs to the group of amines and is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of dyes, pesticides and pharmaceuticals. CMA has been shown to be toxic to humans through skin contact, inhalation or ingestion. This substance also disrupts the activity of enzymes such as acetylcholinesterase, which is responsible for breaking down acetylcholine and regulating muscle contractions. Long-term exposure to this chemical may lead to bladder cancer. CMA can also be used as a model for carcinogenic potential studies due to its ability to induce cancer in animals.
