Comparable DNA and chromosome damage in Chinese hamster ovary cells by chlorohydroxyfuranones.

abstract：:A quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) has been formulated for 15 polycyclic aromatic nitro compounds acting on E. coli PQ37. Upon damage of DNA by these substances beta-galactosidase is induced and can be easily assayed colorimetrically, hence, this is a short-term test for mutagenicity. The QSAR (log ...
