Fig. 4From: Assessing the mutagenicity of protic ionic liquids using the mini Ames testMutagenicity index (MI) of the 7 PILs with the N,N-dimethylethanolammonium cation, showing the cation effect on the results of the mini-Ames test. [DMEtA][Oct] was toxic to both strains due to the long alkyl chain in the anion. The TA98 + S9 [DMEtA][Succ] result and the TA98 [DMEtA][Cl] had a fail result (greater than 2.0), but not for any of the other test systemsBack to article page
