Mitotic response and sister chromatid exchanges in lymphocytes cultured in sera from different sources.
The numbers of sister chromatid exchanges in lymphocytes grown in varying concentrations of serum from different sources indicated that some sera contain a factor, probably introduced as a contaminant, which induces SCEs. Sera from 6 animals showed no evidence of a difference in baseline SCE levels due to the donor of the serum.
