✦ Synopsis

The interaction between anthralin and DNA in vitro was examined. According to our data, there is no evidence for a specific interaction between these substances. However, we found that the addition of small quantities of DNA or albumin significantly enhanced the stability of aqueous solutions of anthralin and markedly affected the rate of anthralin decomposition.
