Abstract excerpt
The genotoxic activity of a new antitumor agent, FK973, was compared with that of mitomycin C (MMC) in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. In chromosome aberration tests using Chinese hamster fibroblast Don cells, FK973 induced a dose-related increase of aberrant cells after 6 h-pulse treatments, and the minimum effective concentrations with and without S9 were 0.625 and 0.0625 micrograms/ml, respectively. The...
