Abstract excerpt
A total of 23 chemicals--biphenyls, phenanthrenequinones and fluorenones--were tested for mutagenicity towards Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1538, TA1535 and TA98. SOS-inducing activity of the same chemicals was studied in terms of the SOS-inducing potency in Escherichia coli PQ37, using an automated instrument controlled by a dedicated computer program for the SOS Chromotest. Of the 23 chemicals studied 14...
