MedKoo Cat#: 208241 | Name: 2-AAF

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

2-Acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF) is a carcinogenic and mutagenic derivative of fluorene. It is used as a biochemical tool in the study of carcinogenesis. Studies have shown that it induces tumors in a number of species in the liver, bladder, and kidney. It is thought that 2-AAF-DNA adduct formation leads to mutation, and eventually tumor formation
