| Abstract | ||
| The present work aimed at investigating two genetic aspects of the antifungal Griseofulvin (GRF) in the ascomycetous fungus Aspergillus amstelodami.The first was its ability to act as a mutagen and the second was its ability to act as a photosensitizer for the DNA to be mutated by the non-mutagenic near UV(NUV). To this end, four sublethal or subinhibitory concentrations (500, 1000, 1250, 1500 g/ml) of the antifungal were tested for their ability to induce forward mutations resist to the toxic base analogue 8-azaguanine(azg) in conidia of this fungus.Within the experimental conditions specified in the present work,non of these two endpoints was fulfilled. | ||
