Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the sensitivity of Arthrobacter sp. PAMC 25486 to various mutagens. ${\gamma}-ray$, UV-ray, Ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) were used as mutagen, and the survival rate of Arthrobacter sp. was measured at various doses of ${\gamma}-ray$ and UV-ray, and concentrations of EMS and $H_2O_2$. Decimal reduction dose ($D_{10}$ value) of Arthrobacter sp. was determined 370 Gy for a gamma irradiation treatment, 0.019 J for a UV ray, 2.5 mM for EMS, and 230 mM for $H_2O_2$. This result will be applied for the development of superior mutant strain of Arctic bacteria producing valuable compounds.
