Description

N-Nitrosoethylmethylamine (NMMA) is a nitrosamine that can be found in water vapor. It has been shown to cause cell lysis and has been detected by LC-MS/MS using an in vitro assay. NMMA is readily soluble in water, making it a suitable candidate for wastewater treatment. This molecule is not cytotoxic or mutagenic but does have carcinogenic potential. NMMA also exhibits matrix effects that are dependent on the type of solvent used for extraction, as well as fluorescence spectrometry results. It was found to be a potent inducer of enzymes such as beta-lactamase, DNA gyrase, and topoisomerase IV, which may be useful for studying gene expression. Dispersive solid phase extraction can be used to extract NMMA from water sources such as soil and drinking water samples.
