Description

Sodium methylarsonate is a monosodium salt of the hydroxypicolinic acid. It is an experimental model for studies on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and has been shown to have significant cytotoxicity in vitro. The toxicological profile of this substance has been studied in rodents, where it was found to have a low toxicity level. Sodium methylarsonate was found to be carcinogenic in mice and rats, but not in hamsters. Picolinic acid, which is produced by the metabolic activation of sodium methylarsonate, may be responsible for its carcinogenic properties. The analytical method used for this substance is high-pressure liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry detection.
