Abstract excerpt
S9 mix produces an effect similar to that of D-glucose in the L-arabinose resistance test of Salmonella typhimurium, releasing the growth inhibition exerted by L-arabinose. Two elements are responsible for this effect: the glucose-6-phosphate present in the cofactors of the S9 mix and the S9 fraction itself. UV light was used as a mutagen to compare the efficiency of S9 mix and D-glucose in allowing phenotypic...
