The potential mutagenic activity of three carbamate derivatives with local anesthetic activity was investigated. Genotoxic activity was observed after application of Carbisocaine on Euglena gracilis , whereas no activity was detected by Carbisocaine, Heptacaine and Pentacaine on Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli and Drosophila melanogaster .
