Abstract
WHR-1142A, lidamidine hydrochloride, an antidiarrhoeal agent, was tested for possible mutagenic/carcinogenic activity in the Ames Salmonella typhimurium/metabolic activation test, the micronucleus test, by analysis of metaphase chromosomes obtained from human lymphocytes grown in culture and in a cell transformation assay. No evidence of mutagenic/carcinogenic activity due to WHR-1142A, lidamidine hydrochloride, was found in any of the 4 tests.
