Forward mutation to 8-azaguanine resistance and reverse mutation to histidine prototrophy were measured in Salmonella typhimurium after treatment with 16 mutagens of both base-substitution and frameshift classes. The two approaches were found to be equisensitive for all 16 mutagens--i.e., induction of significant mutation occurred at similar concentrations in the forward mutation assay and in the most sensitive of the five Ames tester strains.
在用碱基置换和移码两类的16种诱变剂处理鼠伤寒沙门氏菌后,测定了对8-氮杂鸟嘌呤抗性的正向突变和对组氨酸原养型的回复突变。结果发现,对于所有16种诱变剂,这两种方法的敏感性相同——也就是说,在正向突变试验和五个艾姆斯试验菌株中最敏感的菌株中,在相似浓度下诱导出了显著的突变。
