Abstract excerpt
Barium nitrate, which is used in industry in the production of green signal lights, to remove gases from vacuum tubes, and in the production of barium oxide, was assayed to assess the possible mutagenic effects using both the Ames test (S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 1538, TA 97a, TA 98, TA 100, TA 102c), with and without metabolic activation with the plate incorporation assay and pre-incubation assay...
