Article Synopsis
- 2-Hydroxypyridine (2-HPY) is generated from the breakdown of 2-halogenated pyridines and poses genotoxic risks when dissolved in water.
- The genotoxicity was assessed using UV irradiation at 254 nm, with concentration and total organic carbon levels measured over time.
- Results showed that 2-HPY was genotoxic across various concentrations, but prolonged UV exposure significantly lowered its genotoxic effects close to control levels.
