## Abstract The feasibility of detection of carcinogenic chemicals using DNA repair synthesis of cultured human fibroblasts as measured by an unscheduled ^3^HTdR incorporation has been explored. Of 64 chemicals tested, 29 were proximate or ultimate carcinogens, 15 were precarcinogens that required

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is essential for genome stability and inheritance of a mutated MMR gene, most frequently MSH2 or MLH1, results in cancer predisposition known as Lynch syndrome or hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Tumors that arise through MMR deficiency show instability at
The DNA damage induced by N-hydroxy-4-acetylaminobiphenyl (N-OH-AABP), the proximate carcinogenic metabolite of the human bladder carcinogen 4-aminobiphenyl (ABP), was examined in human transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) cells after exposure to the chemical in vitro. 32P-postlabeling analysis of TCC
