Abstract excerpt
We compared the induction of gene mutations and chromosomal aberrations by ethylating agents in lacZ transgenic mice (Muta Mouse). Chromosomal aberrations were detected by the peripheral blood micronucleus assay. Gene mutations were detected in the lacZ transgene. A small amount of blood was sampled from a tail vessel during the expression time for fixation of gene mutations in vivo; this enabled us to detect and...
