Computer-automated prediction of the mutagenicity of benzidine, 4,4"-diaminoterphenyl, 4-dimethylaminoazobenzene and 4-cyanodimethylaniline: comparison with the results of the Second UKEMS Collaborative Study

Mutagenesis. 1986 Jul;1(4):275-82. doi: 10.1093/mutage/1.4.275.

Abstract

There was agreement between the experimental results, obtained in the course of the Second UKEMS Collaborative Study, for the mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium of benzidine, 4,4"-diaminoterphenyl, 4-dimethylaminoazobenzene and 4-cyanodimethylaniline and the mutagenicity predicted by CASE (Computer Automated Structure Evaluation), a recently developed artificial intelligence system.
