Abstract excerpt

In-vitro V79 and L5178Y cells were exposed in a rotating test tube to continuous-wave (CW) 1 MHz 35 W/cm2 ultrasound (0-4 or 0-3 min, respectively) and subsequently assayed for mutation as evidenced by resistance to 6-thioguanine (6-TG). There was a modest but statistically significant increase i...
