Somatic mutation and recombination test in Drosophila melanogasterWiley - Tập 6 Số 2 - Trang 153-188 - 1984
Ulrich Gräf, F.E. Würgler, Alan J. Katz, H. Frei, H. Juon, Caroline B. Hall, P.G. Kale
AbstractA novel test system for the detection of mutagenic and recombinogenic activity of chemicals is described in detail. Drosophila melanogaster larvae trans‐heterozygous for the mutations multiple wing hairs (mwh) and flare (fir) are exposed to the test compounds for various periods of time ranging from 96 hr to 1 hr. Induced mutation...... hiện toàn bộ
Pesticide‐induced complete and partial chromosome loss in screens with repair‐defective females of drosophila melanogasterWiley - Tập 5 Số 6 - Trang 835-846 - 1983
R. C. Woodruff, J. P. Phillips, David M. Irwin
AbstractCommercial preparation of fungicides (captan and maneb), herbicides (bromacil, paraquat, picloram, and 2,4‐D), and insecticides (carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, dimethoate, DDT, diazinon, carbofuran, and permethrin) were tested for their ability to induce complete and partial chromosome losses in Drosophila melanogaster males. In an attempt to identify the mutageni...... hiện toàn bộ
Sister chromatid exchange and chromosome aberration analyses in mice after in vivo exposure to acrylonitrile, styrene, or butadiene monoxideWiley - Tập 8 Số 3 - Trang 439-448 - 1986
Yousuf Sharief, Arthur Brown, Lorraine C. Backer, James A. Campbell, Barbara Westbrook‐Collins, Andrew G. Stead, James W. Allen
AbstractThe use of polymers in plastic and rubber products has generated concern that monomers potentially active in biological systems may be eluted from these substances. We have evaluated two such monomers, acrylonitrile and styrene, for the induction of chromosome damage in mice. Butadiene monoxide, a presumed metabolite of a third important monomer, 1,3‐butadi...... hiện toàn bộ
Chromosome aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges in styrene‐exposed workers with reference to their smoking habitsWiley - Tập 5 Số 3 - Trang 299-309 - 1983
Toshiaki Watanabe, Akira Endo, Miho Kumai, Masayuki Ikeda
AbstractThe incidences of chromosome aberrations and the frequencies of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) were investigated in cultured lymphocytes of 18 styrene‐exposed workers in comparison with six controls. There was a marginal increase in the incidence of structural chromosomal aberrations in first‐division metaphases in the styrene‐exposed workers, as compared...... hiện toàn bộ
