Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Volume 8 of Chemical Mutagens covers a wide range of topics in this continuously changing field. This volume includes chapters on the detection of genetic damage in mammalian sperm both at specific loci and over the entire genome. The discussion of in vitro techniques for working with mammalian cells covers not only specific locus assays but also cellular activation systems. Another chapter extensively discusses the need for a revised protocol for the micronucleus assay. Structure activity relationships are investigated in a chapter dealing with hair dye constituents. One of the most comprehensive chapters deals with problems associated with the detection of mutagenic effects in defined human populations. Finally, there is a detailed presentation of a comprehensive study tabulating the genetic bioassay data on some known or suspected human carcinogens. In keeping with our policy of publishing important legislation in the area of chemical mutagens, we have also included the Council of the European Communities Directive of 18 September 1979.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the rapidly developing field of environmental mutagenesis, the use of stand- ardized protocols has permitted the evaluation of large numbers of chemicals for mutagenic and potential carcinogenic activity. In this sixth volume of Chemical Mutagens, the chapters by Perry, Williams, Rosenkranz and Leifer, Kada et al., Pienta, Tazima, Epler, and Rinkus and Legator provide a systematic listing of the chemicals that have been tested, bringing together both unpublished and previously published data. These chapters will serve as an important milestone by providing a convenient reference to tabulated test data with particular assay systems. Another important area of research is the modification of mutagenic activity. In the chapter by Sugimura and Nagao, factors that alter in vitro metabolic activation are discussed, whereas in the chapter by Maher and McCormick, the role of genetic heterogeneity is considered. Equally important is our need to obtain a better understanding of mutation-induction kinetics, and the mathematical analysis by Haynes and Eckardt provides an important step in this direction.An important new approach for the induction of specific locus mutations in human cells in culture is discussed in the chapter by Thilly and co-workers. We have also been concerned about the problems in the practical applica- tion of various short-term tests in commerical testing laboratories. The prob- lems emerging in the evaluation of potentially important new chemicals have been discussed in a chapter by Brusick et al.
