Comparison of the Salmonella (Ames) test, umu tests, and the SOS Chromotests for detecting genotoxins.

Environmental and molecular mutagenesis - 1 Jan 1990

McDaniels A E, Reyes A L, Wymer L J, Rankin C C, Stelma G N

Abstract excerpt

The limits of detection of 10 genotoxins representing 7 chemical classes with varying structures and modes of action were compared using the Ames test (Salmonella plate-incorporation test) with 2 tester strains, 2 standard colorimetric methods (the umu test and SOS Chromotest), and modifications...
