New Salmonella Test Aims to Speed Cancer Risk Checks
A rapid bacterial assay developed at the University of California uses colonies of Salmonella to flag potential cancer-causing chemicals in days rather than years. Led by Dr. Bruce Ames with colleagues Joyce McCann and Kim Hooper, the test costs only a few hundred dollars per run and may influence industry choices, including Merck and DuPont, as tighter toxic-substance rules take effect. The method seeks to map which chemical classes escape detection and to measure mutagenic potency, amid growing concern about environmental exposures and the pace of regulatory science.
