Abstract excerpt
The initial rates of antimutagenic dark repair were measured in Escherichia coli WP2 trpE65 cells irradiated by UV-light (11 J/m2) and then incubated in liquid media of various compositions. Samples were taken from suspension of incubated bacteria every 5 min following irradiation, mixed with acriflavine to block further repair and plated onto the selective medium containing acriflavine (1 micrograms/ml) to score...
