Genotoxicity of Aspartame [PDF]
Drug and Chemical Toxicology, 2004 In the present study, the genotoxic effects of the low-calorie sweetener aspartame (ASP), which is a dipeptide derivative, was investigated using chromosome aberration (CA) test, sister chromatid exchange (SCE) test, micronucleus test in human lymphocytes and also Ames/Salmonella/ microsome test.

New direct contact approach to evaluate soil genotoxicity using the Vicia faba micronucleus test. [PDF]
, 2009 A method to assess micronucleus (MN) induction in Vicia faba roots by direct contact exposure to a solid matrix was developed. The procedure comprised a 5-d germination period, as in the well-known method using aqueous extracts.
