carcinogenic nitrosamine and nucleic acids content in rat liver and some related enzymes

ABSTRACT

The carcinogenic nitrosamine inhibited DNA and RNA content in liver tissues of rat. It also inhibited DNase, endonuclease, nuclease, RNase A and RNase T1 in liver tissues from 1, 3, 6 and 9 - month-old rats. This inhibition decreased on adding soybean flour to the rat diet
