Abstract excerpt
To characterize environmental carcinogens, there is a need to distinguish monofunctional genotoxic agents from those having cross-linking potential, because chemicals which can cross-link DNA are among the most potent carcinogens in rodents [Barbin and Bartsch, 1989] and humans [Allen et al., 1988; Kaldor et al., 1988]. Here we provide a genetic method for a pre-classification of genotoxins with respect to their...
