Abstract
Most studies of the genetic effects of anticancer drugs have been concerned with their ability to cause cytogenetic damage. Gene mutations have been screened in bacteria [14], Drosophila [5, 6], and cultured mammalian cells [7, 8].
Financial support for this study was received from the Cancer Research Campaign and the Musgrove Leukaemia Fund.
