An in situ protocol for measuring the expression of chemically-induced mutations in mammalian cells.

Abstract excerpt

The generation of expression curves and the evaluation of mutagenic responses of mammalian cells using standard mutagenesis assays can be inaccurate because mutant and wild-type cells are usually mixed during the expression phase. If some mutant progenitors or mutants grow more slowly than the wild-type cells during the expression period, there will be a decrease in the mutant to wild-type ratio with time and the...
