Abstract
N-Nitrosothiazolidine 4-carboxylic acid (NTCA), a sulphur-containing nitrosamine present in human urine, was predicted to be non-carcinogenic by CASE, the newly developed Computer Automated Structure Evaluating system. On the other hand, N-nitrosothiazolidine (NTHZ), a nitrosamine present in food products, was predicted to be carcinogenic. The putative non-carcinogenic NTCA may be metabolized to NTHZ, a predicted carcinogen. (Copyright (c) 1987 Pergamon Journals Ltd.)
