Description:2,6-Diaminotoluene (2,6-TDA), also known as o-tolidine, is a colorless to yellowish crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents. This compound has been shown to be genotoxic and carcinogenic in laboratory animals. 2,6-TDA binds to the receptor molecule of DNA and inhibits the repair of DNA strand breaks, leading to mutations and cancerous cells. 2,6-TDA has been shown to have toxic effects on fetal bovine kidney cells at low doses. The toxicity studies showed that 2,6-TDA inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis in a dose dependent manner. This study also shows that 2,6-TDA inhibits protein synthesis by binding to ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
