CAS 70-69-9: p-Aminopropiophenone

4'-Aminopropiophenone is an oxygen-carrying molecule that has been shown to have genotoxic effects. It can be used as a control agent in toxicity studies. 4'-Aminopropiophenone also has locomotor activity in animals and affects the function of neurons. This compound has not yet been tested on humans, but it is suspected that it may have a similar effect on the human body. The analytical method for this compound is based on the spectrophotometric measurement of amines. The test for this compound is done by injecting a dose into an animal and measuring the concentration of creatinine sulfate in its blood sample over time with a spectrophotometer. Radiation can alter the shape of the molecules and change their color, so it must be kept away from this chemical during testing. 4'-Aminopropiophenone has dose-dependent effects, meaning that higher doses will produce more negative effects than lower doses.
