title: [The products of water chlorination as inducers of gene mutations].
abstract: Experimental data on water mutagenicity from Dnepro technological chain of pipe-line water purification were obtained using Ames express method of gene mutation induction in histidine-dependent strains of Salmonella typhimurium series TA (TA 98 and TA 100). It was shown that water mutagenicity depended on the level of water pollution by chemical substances in the river Dnieper and the use of chlorine for water disinfection.
