Ethyl methanesulfonate, 50mg

Ethyl methanesulfonate is a DNA ethylating agent, mutagenic to plants and animals and carcinogenic in mammals. It has been used as a model alkylating agent in studies of DNA repair processes. It induces base substitutions of guanine-cytosine (G/C) to adenine-thymine (A/T). EMS also generates point mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms in genomes.
