Suspended particulate matter of samples of river water and waste water treatment plants was tested for genotoxicity and mutagenicity using the standardized umu assay and two versions of the Ames microsuspension assay. The study tries to determine the entire DNA-damaging potential of the water samples and the distribution of DNA-damaging substances among the liquid phase and solid phase. Responsiveness and sensitivity of the bioassays are compared.
利用标准化的umu试验和两个版本的埃姆斯微悬液试验,对河水和污水处理厂样品中的悬浮颗粒物进行了遗传毒性和诱变性测试。该研究试图确定水样的整体DNA损伤潜力以及DNA损伤物质在液相和固相中如何分布。同时比较了生物测定的响应性和敏感性。
