Abstract excerpt
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was shown to be mutagenic in a number of strains of Salmonella typhimurium. Strain SB1106p (hisC3108, hisO1242, pKM101), a newly-constructed strain carrying the histidine mutation at a UGA chain-terminating codon, was more responsive to H2O2 than TA104 or TA102, the two hisG428 strains originally developed for detecting oxidative mutagens. The largest proportional increase in revertants...
