Bacterial mutagenicity of dithiocarbamate fungicide thiram
Abstract
In the present work, within a project of re-evaluation of authorized pesticides coordinated by PZH (National Institute of Hygiene) we aimed at looking for a mechanism of induction of chromosomal aberrations by thiram. We checked its ability to damage bacterial DNA.
