Abstract
The mutagenic activity of styrene was investigated by incubating the strains of Salmonella typhimurium in gaseous atmospheres. The sensitive strains were TA1530, TA1535 and TA100. In that method, styrene regularly showed a mutagenic activity in the presence of a fortified liver post-mitochondrial fraction. The mutagenic activity remained weak. Moreover, it seemed that a volatile mutagenic intermediate was formed metabolically during the assays; its identity remains unknown.Entities:
