[Effect of thioglycolic acid on Allium sativum L. root meristems].
Thioglycolic acid is, in the Allium test, somewhat less cytotoxic than mercaptoethanol but the characteristics of cytotoxicity are the same in both cases : the mitoclasic effect cannot be separated from a strong mitodepressive effect and is quickly followed by a lethal effect.
