Induction of mutations by tritiated water and 3H-thymidine in Drosophila melanogaster assayed by the somatic zeste-white eye mutation system.

Mutation research - 1 Jan 2000

Rasmuson A, Xamena N, Creus A, Marcos R

Abstract excerpt

In order to study the mutagenic effect of exposure to tritium, Drosophila melanogaster larvae were treated with tritiated water (3H2O) or tritiated thymidine (3H-TdR) during development. Dose rates ranged from 0.0058 to 0.058 rad/h per nucleus for 3H-TdR and from 0.049 to 0.122 rad/h for 3H2O. Induction of mutations was measured by the appearance of somatic mutations in the eyes of an unstable strain of...
