✦ Synopsis


The cytogenetic effects of homo-aza-steroidal ester (ASE) on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in vitro are reported. It was found that treatment of cells with a dose as low as 0.025 pglml of ASE causes a significant number of abnormal metaphases containing mostly chromatid-type aberrations. Similarly. significant frequencies of SCE were induced with only 0.075 pg/ml of ASE.
