Benznidazole-induced genotoxicity in diploid cells of Aspergillus nidulans
Genotoxic effects of benznidazole were studied by the induction of homozygosis of genes previously present in heterozygous. UT448//A757 diploid strain was used in the benznidazole's recombinagenesis test. Although toxic effects on growth of colonies were not observed, 75 and 100 µM benznidazole...
