Abstract excerpt

3-Chloro-4-(dichloromethyl)-5-hydroxy-2(5H)-furanone (MX), a chlorine disinfection by-product in drinking water, is carcinogenic in rats and genotoxic in mammalian cells in vitro. In the current study, the mechanism of genotoxicity of MX in human lymphoblastoid TK6 cells was investigated by use of the Comet assay, the micronucleus test, and the thymidine kinase (TK) gene-mutation assay. MX induced a...
