Effects of Pollutants on Vertebrate Cells in Vitro.

Abstract

Hydrazine (*and monomethyl hydrazine examined with respect to thbir'effects on vertebrate cell cultures.' Comparative giowth and morphological studies demons~pj ted that both compounds affect the cell surface. The technique of Taser cell surface photobleaching of membrane probes is being developed as an assay of membrane fluidity changes. Considerable effort was devoted to perfecting this method by making numerous measurements on different cell types using two different probes.
