Abstract excerpt
After treatment with methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) or N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU), the mutagenicity and survival of Chinese hamster V79 cells were investigated, as well as the inhibition of daughter DNA synthesis and, using the DNA unwinding technique and hydroxylapatite chromatography, the character of the newly synthesized DNA was studied. It was found that different cytotoxicity and mutagenicity of MMS and...
