Özet

Two in vitro tests (Salmonella/microsome mutagenicity test and SOS chromotest), one for bacterial mutagenicity and one for primary DNA damage, were assayed to determine the genotoxic activity of surface water of Tigris river. In the Salmonella test, all water samples, presence and absence of S9 mix, showed mutagenic activity on Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 and TA 100. All samples tested with the SOS-chromotest were not found to induce primary DNA damage in E. coli PQ37. For each sample, the sensitivity of the tests indicated that SOS-chromotest is less sensitive than Salmonella assay.
