The in vitro binding of three allyl compounds, allyl methanesulphonate, allyl bromide and allyl chloride to DNA from salmon sperm was investigated. Kinetic DNA-alkylation measurements revealed significant differences between the strongly alkylating allyl methanesulphonate and allyl bromide with half-life values
