| Abstract |
Bleaching effluents were obtained from 6 mills, mainly from the chlorination stage of the bleaching process. They were spot tested with Escherichia coli and tested quantitatively with Salmonella. Effluents from the chlorination and hypochlorite stages had mutagenic effects. The effect was reduced by a metabolising system. The mutagenic components are characterised. |
