Abstract excerpt
The assumption that mutagens have linear dose-responses recently has been challenged. In particular, ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), a DNA-reactive mutagen and carcinogen, exhibited sublinear or thresholded dose-responses for LacZ mutation in transgenic Muta™Mouse and for micronucleus (MN) frequency in CD1 mice (Gocke E and Müller L [2009]: Mutat Res 678:101-107). In order to explore variables in establishing...
