Abstract excerpt
As part of a major study to evaluate the mutagenicity of chemicals produced during the cooking of foods, we examined the responses of bacteria and cultured Chinese hamster cells to the compounds Trp-P-2 (3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole) and IQ (2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline), co...
