Ames test it is a biological assay to assess the mutagenic potential of chemical compounds. It utilizes bacteria to test whether a given chemical can cause mutations in the DNA of the test organism. This test is based on the principle of reverse mutation or back mutation. So, the test is also known as bacterial reverse mutation assay.\n
