Abstract excerpt
Ethylnitrosourea is the most efficient chemical mutagen in spermatogonial stem cells of the mouse and its mutagenic activity has been intensively studied. The pertinent specific-locus mutation test results for a discussion of low dose-effect studies have been summarized and indicate: (1) A threshold dose response best characterizes the relationship between dose and mutation rate. (2) The reduced effectiveness of...
