Abstract excerpt
1. Rat liver 9,000 g supernatant protected against the mutagenic effect of chlorinated hydrophilic macromolecular humic acids (CHMA) in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100. 2. Protection against mutagenicity of CHMA was mediated by glutathione and was partially dependent on glutathione S-transferase activity. 3. In contrast to the above findings, CHMA showed lower mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium and...
