title: [Determination of alkylation of bacterial DNA as a rapid test for toxicological evaluation of alkylating xenobiotic agents].
abstract: Alkylated purine bases from hydrolized DNA can be separated by HPLC and quantified with a fluorescence detector. We applied this method to bacterial DNA. 7-methylguanine was detected after treatment of Serratia marcescens with iodoacetamide, dimethyl sulfate and with polluted air.
