Euglena gracilis as an eukaryotic test organism for detecting mutagens and antimutagens.

Mutation research - 18 Sept 1997

Foltínová P, Grones J

Abstract excerpt

The unicellular flagellate Euglena gracilis was used in order to assess the inhibition of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) mutagenicities, which induce white mutants due to the irreversible loss of chloroplasts. All tested compounds, including o-aminobe...
