The induction of quinone reductase [QR; NAD(P)H:(quinone acceptor) oxidoreductase; EC 1.6.99.2] in cultured cells and animal tissues of rodents has provided useful information on mechanisms of protection against carcinogens. We have developed a simple and efficient microtiter plate assay for

A method is presented for improved detection of pseudouridine in nucleoside mixtures based on the specific derivatization with methyl vinyl sulfone followed by analysis by capillary HPLC-mass spectrometry. Reaction conditions were optimized in order to obtain the best yield and

Methyl vinyl sulfone and divinyl sulfone were tested for the induction of dominant lethal mutations and micronucleated bone-marrow erythrocytes in male mice. These chemicals were chosen for study because of their similarities in structure and chemical reactivity to acrylamide which
K L Dearfield et al.
Mutagenesis, 6(6), 519-525 (1991-11-01)
Over the past several years, we have been evaluating the mutagenicity and clastogenicity of compounds capable of Michael-type reactions. These compounds, including acrylamide, several acrylate and methacrylate esters, vinyl sulfones, and phorone, have been evaluated using TK+/- -3.7.2C mouse lymphoma
