Cr(VI) treatment does not cause detectable DNA damage in the mitochondria or nucleus of BEAS-2B cells. Representative PCR of total DNA using primers that amplify 16.2 kb of mitochondrial DNA (A), or a 13.5-kb region of nuclear DNA encoding the β-globin gene (B). Total DNA was isolated from cells that had been treated with the indicated concentrations of Cr(VI) for 3 hr. The relative amount of DNA template that was used in each PCR reaction is indicated. The leftmost lane in each panel shows a decreased template control with 50% less (A) or 75% less (B) DNA template from control cells used for the PCR reaction.
