Abstract

Two mutagenic compounds have been isolated and purified from commercial beef extract. These two compounds have chemical, chromatographic, spectroscopic and biological behavior indistinguishable from those of the two known mutagens 2-amino-3-methyl-imidazo-[4,5-f]-quinoline and 2-amino-3,8-dimethyl-imidazo-[4,5-f]-quinoxaline.
