Reaction of aflatoxin B with guanosine (04/23/1976)

Purpose/Intro: "1. To attempt a chemical synthesis of an adduct; 2. To test the reactivity of B with a typical nucleic acid component. B may exist in the cell and is a possible ultimate carcinogen metabolite."
Results/Conclusion: Aflatoxin B seemed unstable—the B peak changed over time. There was no peak at the retention time of Peak 1, indicating that the adduct probably wasn't formed.
