Canine Urothelial DNA Mutations Are Not Associated With Total Trihalomethanes Concentrations in Municipal Drinking Water. [PDF]
Vet Comp OncolABSTRACT Contaminants in municipal drinking water, specifically total trihalomethanes (TTHMs), are mutagenic. Exposures to TTHMs have been associated with urothelial carcinoma (UC) in both people and dogs. Mutations in the BRAF gene and other genomic copy number aberrations detected in voided urothelial cells with commercial CADET BRAF and BRAF‐PLUS ...

Trihalomethanes as initiators and promoters of carcinogenesis. [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1982 Chloroform and other trihalomethanes are contaminants of drinking water that have been demonstrated to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals. Determination of the mechanism of carcinogenicity of chloroform is required so that the animal data can be extrapolated to estimate the human health hazard.
