The mutagenicity of tetrachloroethene (tetra) and its S conjugate, S-(1,2,2-trichlorovinyl)glutathione (TCVG) was investigated using a modified Ames preincubation assay. TCVG was a potent mutagen in presence of rat kidney particulate fractions containing high concentrations of y-glutamyl transpeptid

eChlorobenzylidene malononitrile (CS), a riot control agent, was evaluated for its possible mutagenic activity in the Ames Salmonella/mammalian microsome mutagenicity test. Five histidine-deficient (His-) mutant tester strains of Salmonella typhimurium-TA97a, TA98, TA100, TA102 and TAlOAwere used. T
## Abstract Based on the findings of Nagao et al [1978] that phenacetin is negative in the standard Ames test with Aroclor induced rat Sβ9 and positive with hamster Sβ9, the test was performed with a mixture of rat/hamster Sβ9. Phenacetin was mutagenic with the mixture. The activity of the mixture
A low-viscosity carcinogenic oil was extracted with dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) and the extract fractionated into 1-3 ring aromatic components, 4-6 ring polycyclic aromatic compounds (PCAs) and polar materials. Each of these fractions was tested in the Mobil modified Ames assay at the same concentrat
We examined the mutagenicity of iso-butyl nitrite (IBN) vapor and aqueous IBN solution in the Ames test to help evaluate the hazard of sniffing this vapor, a habit which might play a role in the induction of Kaposi's sarcoma associated with acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Chemical analysis show
