Salmonella typhimurium TA102 tester strain, semisolid format. 250 µL. Uniquely detects oxidative mutagens and DNA cross-linking agents. Research use only.

TA102 is unique among Ames tester strains in having an A:T base pair at the critical mutation site (instead of G:C), enabling detection of mutagens causing A:T→T:A transversions and A:T→G:C transitions. It is the only standard strain sensitive to hydrogen peroxide, bleomycin, and DNA cross-linking agents — oxidative mutagen classes undetected by other strains. Critical addition for pharmaceutical genotoxicity testing where oxidative stress is relevant.

• A:T base pair target — uniquely detects oxidative mutagens
• Detects H₂O₂, bleomycin, and DNA cross-linking agents
• Only standard Ames strain with oxidative mutagen sensitivity
• 250 µL semisolid — store at -70°C
