Abstract excerpt
Several tester strains of Salmonella typhimurium, TA-98, TA-100, TA-1535, and TA-1538; Escherichia coli, W3110 (pol A+) and p3438 (pol A-, repair deficient); and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, D3, D4, and D5 were tested for lethal and mutagenic events when exposed to elevated temperatures or to x-band, pulsed microwave radiation at various power densities. When compared to E. coli pol A+ under growing conditions, E....
