Biotransformation of several structurally related 2B compounds to reactive metabolites was evaluated in the somatic w/w+ assay of Drosophila melanogaster. Chemicals tested were the dichlorinated alkanes dichloromethane (DCM), 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE), and 1,3-dichloropropane (DCP); the thiouracil de

A group of six chemical compounds was tested in parallel in two different somatic genotoxicity assays in Drosophila rnelanogaster, the wing somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) and the whiteivory eye spot test. The wing spot test makes use of the wing cell markers multiple wing hairs (rnw
Nitroguanidine (NG) and its degradation product nitrosoguanidine (NSG) were evaluated for their mutagenic potential by using Drosophila melanogaster sex-linked recessive lethal (SLRL) assay. Following 72 h of feeding exposure, NG and NSG at concentrations of 4-8 pg ml-' and 15-20 mg ml-I, respective
