Abstract excerpt
We used the autoradiographic assay to assess human in vivo somatic cell gene mutation at the hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (hgprt) locus in T-lymphocytes. Cells able to incorporate tritiated thymidine in vitro in 6-thioguanine containing short-term cultures were enumerated in order to determine 6-thioguanine resistant (TGr) variant frequencies in cryopreserved lymphocytes from control...
