Intracellular F was below the limit of detection (0.2 ppm). However, F was taken up from media, providing that Al was also present. Neither F, Al, nor Al:F was found to be mutagenic as assessed by a modification of the Ames standard plate incorporation assay. While F did not appear to cause mutations in the presence or absence of Al, it was concluded that the mutagenicity test, using TA98, is not suitable for the evaluation of F mutagenicity.","Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:53:59Z (GMT).
