A review of the genetic effects of naturally occurring flavonoids, anthraquinones and related compounds.

Brown Jp
- 01 May 1980 - 
TL;DR: Two classes of common phenolic plant pigments contain many members mutagenic in the Salmonella/mammalian microsome assay, and the genetic toxicity of these agents and their dietary intake and metabolic fate in man is assessed.

Chromosome Aberrations Induced by Ionizing Radiations

TL;DR: Comparisons among different types of ionizing radiations and among similar radiation types having different energies for their capacity for producing chromosome aberrations are of considerable fundamental importance in the study of aberration production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromosome aberration assays in Allium. A report of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Gene-Tox Program.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the Allium test be included among those tests routinely used for assessing chromosomal damage induced by chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Summary review of the health effects associated with phenol.

TL;DR: If human health is at risk to those levels of phenol present in the environment and workplace is determined, because data are limited, further research is necessary to analyze the mutagenic and carcinogenic potential of this chemical.

Cytological reactions induced by inorganic salt solutions.

Albert Levan
- 22 Dec 1945 - 
TL;DR: Salts, mostly nitrates, of some forty metals were tested, covering the whole range from total lethality down to such weak con- centrations that no cytological effect could be detected.
Journal ArticleDOI

The chemical breakage of chromosomes

TL;DR: Since temperature is the chief environmental variable concerned, and since low temperature will produce by nucleic acid starvation the same sister-reunionThe distinction between spontaneous errors and induced ones is purely a matter of the exactness of the authors' control which is continually increasing.
