The induction of gene mutations was examined in MutaMouse after an intraperitoneal injection of 7, 8-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) at 20 mg/kg in a collaborative study participated by four laboratories. Although the DMBA dose used was lower than the level that has been reported to induce micronucleated erythrocytes maximally in several mouse strains, a killing effect appeared after day 9 of the post-treatment...
