Abstract excerpt
The mouse lymphoma assay (MLA), a forward mutation assay using the Tk+/--3.7.2C clone of the L5178Y mouse lymphoma cell line and the Thymidine kinase (Tk) gene, has been widely used as an in vitro genetic toxicity assay for more than four decades. The MLA can evaluate the ability of mutagens to induce a wide range of genetic events including both gene mutations and chromosomal mutations and has been recommended...
