Title: Genotoxicity of the pestiside in Ames test and the possibility to formate the complexeses with DNA

It is positioned, that mutagen indexes of the investigated pesticides correlate with the value constant of formation the complexes these substances with DNA. Complexes lontrel (MLsub2/sub) with all metals have displayed mutagen activity. Genotoxicity NiLsub2/sub, FeLsub2/sub, ZnLsub2/sub it is close to genotoxicity initial lontrel, at complexes with other metals have genotoxicity in 1,5-2 times lower.Read More
