Method
- Target gene:
- Salmonella typhimurium (strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535 and TA 1537) and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA
The direct incorporation method: For test without metabolic activation, the test substance and 0.1 ml of fresh bacterial culture were added to
2.0 ml of overlay agar. For tests with metabolic activation, 0.5 ml of metabolic activation mixture containing an adequate amount of postmitochondrial
fraction was added to the overlay agar after the addition of the bacteria and test substance. All plates in a given test should be incubated for the
same time period.
