Comparative study of the mutagenetic effect of uv radiation and diethyl sulfate vapors on strain 1321 of Actinomyces antocyaneus (in Russian)
A comparative study was made of the effects of uv irradiation and diethyl sulfate vapors on the frequency of the origin of different types of mutation in strain 1321 of A. antocyaneus. Of the two mutagens used, diethyl sulfate vapors appeared very effective in the proportion of new types of morphological mutations. Treatment with it caused greater variability with respect to indications of antibiotic formation with a larger yield of the' plus'' variant than with uv irradiation. Twelve biochemical mutants induced by uv irradiation and nine biochemical mutants under the effects of diethyl sulfate vapor were selected. -The majority of the biochemical mutants proved to be instable and reverted to the original prototrophic state.
