Abstract

Methods for Carcinogenesis Tests at the Cellular Level and Their Evaluation for the Assessment of Occupational Cancer Hazards

Highlights

  • This small volume reports the proceedings of a meeting held in Milan in December 1977, which covered three major topics: Methods for cell transformation in culture by chemicals; Correlations of such tests with genetic damage and with carcinogenesis in vivo; and Occupational health evaluations

  • Several papers were presented which dealt with the advantages and disadvantages of mammalian cell-transformation systems both in relationship to their reproducibility and possible applicability for carcinogenesis testing on a large scale

  • It was generally felt that such systems are reproducible in the hands of experienced operators, they are not yet sufficiently well established, those using epithelial cells, to be used on a routine basis
