Abstract
Summary Iodo-, bromo- and chloroethanol are mutagenic for Salmonella typhimuriurn . The mutations induced are of the base-substitution type. These haloethanols also preferentially inhibit the growth of DNA polymerase-deficient Escherichia coli . The order of the reactivities of the substances in these systems is bromoethanol > iodoethanol > chloroethanol. These alcohols react with and modify isolated DNA.
