| Popis: | Motor oils become mutagenic after use in internal combustion engines. This work has shown that the major factor involved in the production of these mutagens is nitrogen dioxide. Sulfur dioxide and other gases do not seem to cause the production of mutagens. These results may be related to the mutagenicity of diesel exhaust particulates and some synthetic fuels. 14 references, 5 figures, 2 tables. |
