Description

N-Butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine is a potent mutagen that can cause high-level of mutagenesis specifically in the epithelial cells (urothelial) of the urinary bladder. N-Butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine is used to induce bladder cancer in rodents[1].

In Vivo

N-Butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN; 0.05% solution in drinking water; for 2 weeks) is a powerful mutagen in urothelial tissue in mice and rats[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
