Abstract excerpt
Hprt mutant frequency and p53 gene status were assessed in wild-type and p53 heterozygous (p53+/-) mice exposed chronically by inhalation to benzene. Benzene exposures to 100 ppm for 6h on Monday-Friday, 100 ppm for 10h on Monday-Wednesday-Friday, or 200 ppm for 5h on Monday-Wednesday-Friday yielded the same total exposures (concentration x time) of 3000 ppm x h/week. Hprt mutations in splenic T-lymphocytes were...
