Effect of heat shock on the mutagenicity of mutagens and carcinogens inEuglena gracilis

摘要

AbstractThe effect of heat‐shock treatment (42°C for 15 min) on the ability of four mutagens and carcinogens to induce hereditary bleaching inEuglena graciliscells was investigated. All four mutagens (treatment time: 1–24 h) tested after heat shock increased the frequency of bleached mutants ofEuglena grac
