✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Caprolactam was tested for genetic activity in bacterial and mammalian screens. It was inactive in the following tests: a) Salmonella/microsome mutagenicity; b) Chinese hamster ovary cell mutagenicity (induction of 6‐thioguanine mutants); c) Enhancement of SA7 virus transformation of primary hamster embryo cells, when administered before or after virus, and; d) Chemical transformation of secondary hamster embryo cells.
