## Abstract A highly sensitive __umu__ test system for the detection of genotoxic activities of a variety of mutagenic nitroarenes has been developed using a new tester strain, __Salmonella typhimurium__ NM3009 having high Oβacetyltransferase (OβAT) and nitroreductase (NR) activities. The NM3009 wa
Benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP) are activated by intact plant cells and cell free TX1MX into mutagenic metabolites that induce frameshift and base pair substitution mutations in Salmonella typhimurium. The plant activation of these agents is plant peroxidase-mediated and bacterial O-acetyltran
