## Abstract This article traces the development of the field of mutagenesis and its metamorphosis into the research area we now call genetic toxicology. In 1969, this transitional event led to the founding of the Environmental Mutagen Society (EMS). The charter of this new Society was to βencourage
Major advances have been made in our understanding of the environmental chemistry and toxicology of silver, Ag(I), over the past few years. The scientific community has learned a great deal about sources, concentration levels in natural waters and biota, physicochemical forms, adsorption/desorption
In the early 1970s, we overestimated the range of applicability of the hypothesis that mutations were highly predictive of rodent cancer. Many substances that are nonmutagenesis in current screens are carcinogenic; some genotoxicants are not carcinogenic. Methods of quantitative risk assessment that
