Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment as used therapeutically (i.e., exposure to 100% oxygen at a pressure of 1.5 bar for a total of 60 min) has been shown to induce DNA damage in the alkaline comet assay with leukocytes from test subjects. Under these conditions, HBO did not lead to an induction of gen

## Abstract For the simultaneous assessment of __in vitro__ carcinogenicity and mutagenicity of phytoestrogens, the abilities of 5 phytoestrogens, daidzein, genistein, biochanin A, prunetin, and coumestrol, to induce cell transformation and genetic effects were examined using the Syrian hamster emb
## Abstract Caprolactam was tested for genetic activity in bacterial and mammalian screens. It was inactive in the following tests: a) Salmonella/microsome mutagenicity; b) Chinese hamster ovary cell mutagenicity (induction of 6‐thioguanine mutants); c) Enhancement of SA7 virus transformation of pr
The incorporation of labelled thymidine (dT) and iododeoxyuridine (IdU) into DNA was studied with tissue culture cells and with normal mouse cells in vitro. The rates of incorporation and the ratio dT/IdU incorporation both vaned from one type of cell to another and from one suspending medium to ano
## Abstract The mutagenicity of a series of reactive polycyclic hydrocarbon derivatives has been studied using Chinese hamster (V79) cells in culture and, as a mutational marker, resistance to the purine analogue 8‐azaguanine. The compounds were compared by relating mutation frequency to the dose a
