S -nitrosoglutathine (GSNO) and reduced glutathione (GSH) were tested for mutagenicity against strain Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 in the Ames Standard plate incorporation assay. Neither GSNO not GSH were mutagenic when tested alone. In combination,

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was shown to be mutagenic in a number of strains of Salmonella typhimurium. Strain SB1106p (hisC3108, hisO1242, pKM101), a newly-constructed strain carrying the histidine mutation at a UGA chain-terminating codon, was more re
