Abstract
Using the results on transposition, it is shown that many of the realizations using current conveyors given for the various mutators in a recent paper by Soliman are intimately related. Some new types of mutators are introduced, and their realizations using two or three current conveyors are given. These results are then extended to the case of generalized impedance converters and inverters.
