Abstract

The carcinogenicity of the fungicide fenaminosulf (I) [140-56-7] and one of its bacterial metabolites dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DMPDA) [99-98-9] was evaluated in rats. Over 17 mo, rats fed with 250 mg of the compound/kg of feed (in the presence or absence of nitrite) did not develop tumors. Phenols were detected in the urine and feces of rats receiving either I or DMPDA suggesting possible detoxification of these compounds
