title: [Mutagenicity study of eight diesel emission samples].
abstract: Mutagenicity of eight diesel emission samples were examined by the Microsuspension test. The results showed that four samples were positive, and the others were negative. We also compared the method with the standard Ames test. The data showed that the microsuspension test is sensitive and economical. The microsuspension test method is useful for determining mutagenicity of environmental mutagens.
