Abstract excerpt
Induction of hprt mutations by 1,3-butadiene (BD) and its metabolites 1,2-epoxybutene (EB) and 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane (DEB) was studied in lymphocytes from spleens of 6- to 14-week-old mice and 10- to 11-week-old rats. For unknown reasons, results from experiments with mice that received inhalation exposure to BD were quite variable. In the first experiment, mice were exposed for 5 days to 200, 500 or 1300 ppm and...
