Chemical mutagenesis testing in Drosophila. IX. Results of 50 coded compounds tested for the national toxicology program

TL;DR: Fifty chemicals were tested for mutagenic activity in post-meiotic and meiotic germ cells of male Drosophila melanogaster using the sex-linked recessive lethal (SLRL) assay and five of these, including 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether, 2,2-dimethyl vinyl chloride, hexamethylphosphoramide, isopropyl glycidyl Ether, and urethane induced reciprocal translocations.

Tumour promotion by tcdd in skin of hrs/j hairless mice.

TL;DR: In HRS/J hairless mice, tumour promotion by TCDD elicits the same incidence and multiplicity of skin papillomas as does the classical tumour .promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), but at l/100th the dose.

Concentration and profile of 22 urinary polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolites in the US population.

TL;DR: The use of 1-PYR as a useful surrogate representing PAH exposure is supported, and log-transformed concentrations for major detectable OH-PAHs were significantly correlated with each other.
