Abstract excerpt

Cultivation of E. coli B/r strain WP2 in low concentrations of either 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide (4NQO) or N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) had no effect on the mutagenic or cytotoxic consequences of subsequent challenge with dichlorvos (DCV). However, although the sensitivity of E. coli...
