Description

p-Toluidine is a surfactant that is used as an antimicrobial agent for wastewater treatment. It is typically used in conjunction with potassium dichromate and nitrogen to remove organic matter from water. p-Toluidine can be used as a fluorescence probe for the detection of carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids. This compound has been shown to have carcinogenic potential in rats when administered at high doses via diet or drinking water. The mechanism of this carcinogenicity is not known but may be due to structural changes within DNA and RNA molecules, which could affect cellular replication or transcription. p-Toluidine also reacts with acidic compounds such as sulfuric acid and nitric acid to produce an energy-rich molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
