Carolina 1,3-Butadiene (BD) is a carcinogen that is bioactivated to at least two genotoxic metabolites. In the present article, we review briefly our previous studies on the in vivo mutagenicity and mutational spectra of BD in bone marrow and extend these studies to examine the effect of exposure ti
W e have examined the spectra of mutations in a collection of 7 4 lac1 mutants isolated from the bone marrow of B6C3F1 lac1 transgenic mice exposed to 1,250 ppm 1,3-butadiene (BD). Of the 49 inde pendent mutations analyzed in the present study, 30 of 49 (61 %) were point mutations at G:C base pairs,
