Abstract excerpt
Conditions have been defined to measure the in vitro induction of mutations at the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (hprt) locus in human T-lymphocytes by a cell cloning assay. The in vitro growth of mass cultures as well as cell cloning is accomplished by the use of crude T-cell growth factor (TCGF) and irradiated human lymphoblastoid feeder cells. These initial studies employed irradiation of G0...
