Abstract

Chloroethylene oxide and 2‐chloroacetaldehyde, two possibly carcinogenic metabolites of vinyl chloride in mammals, caused a dose‐dependent induction of 8‐azaguanine‐and ouabain‐resistant mutants in Chinese hamster V79 cells in vitro. Up to one‐hundredfold higher concentrations of 2‐chloroethanol or monochloroacetic acid, a urinary vinyl chloride metabolite in rats and man, were inactive.
