Abstract excerpt
Cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-KI-BH4) were treated for 2 h with 4CMB, 4HMB and BC, in the absence of any exogenous metabolic activation system. The cells were subjected to tests for survival, sister-chromatid exchange, chromosome aberration and mutation to thioguanine resistance. 4HMB had no effect in any test at concentrations up to 100 microgram/ml. 4CMB was slightly more toxic than BC. Both 4CMB...
