Genotoxic effect of 2,2'-bis(bicyclo[2.2.1] heptane) on bacterial cells.

The toxic effect of strained hydrocarbon 2,2'-bis (bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane) (BBH) was studied using whole-cell bacterial lux-biosensors based on Escherichia coli cells in which luciferase genes are transcriptionally fused with stress-inducible promoters. It was shown that BBH has the genotoxic ef...
