Abstract excerpt
The photobiological effect of a new pyrene derivative, 1,6-dioxapyrene (1,6-DP), was studied in Salmonella typhimurium (strain TA100) and in the diploid strain D7 of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In Salmonella, 1,6-DP shows little mutagenicity in the dark in comparison to benzo[a]pyrene (B[...
