Application
A Mutagenic and Carcinogenic Heterocyclic Amine
2-Amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (its other name: 2-amino-α-carboline) is a mutagenic and carcinogenic heterocyclic amine present in foods cooked at high temperature and in cigarette smoke. Scientific reports have been suggested that it’s active metabolites form covalent DNA adducts, and may be a significant source of DNA damage.
