Salmonella Mutagenicity Assay Kit
The materials contained in this Salmonella Mutagenicity Assay Kit include virtually all of the supplies necessary for the conduct of the “Ames Assay” as described by Maron & Ames (Maron, D. M. and B. N. Ames, Revised methods for the Salmonella mutagenicity test, Mutation Research, 113: 173-215, 1983.) - we strongly recommend that you carefully read this paper before you attempt to perform the assay.
