EMS-induced dominant lethal dose response curve in DBA/1J male mice
Abstract
An ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) induced dominant lethal dose response experiment was conducted in strain DBA/1J male mice. Two methods of scoring for dominant lethals, the classic method (dissecting females at mid-pregnancy) and an alternative method (inspection of uterine scars after litters were weaned) were compared. Results indicate that strain DBA/1J has a similar sensitivity to EMS-induced dominant lethals as has been previously reported for other mouse genotypes. Of the two methods used to score dominant lethals, the classic method is more sensitive.
