Abstract

The results obtained by testing the mutagenicity of several vinylic monomers, styrene, butadiene, acrylonitrile, vinyl chloride on strains of Salmonella typhimurium in various experimental conditions, modes of incubation, and in the presence of different metabolic activating systems, demonstrate that these parameters have a variable effect on the mutagenic potency of those monomers.
