Comparative Evaluation of Genotoxicity of Captan in Amphibian Larvae (Xenopus laevis and Pleurodeles waltl) Using the Comet Assay and the Micronucleus Test [PDF]

, 2006
Captan (N-trichloromethylthio-4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboximide) is a fungicide used to inhibit the growth of many types of fungi on plants used as foodstuffs.

Biomonitoring of the genotoxic potential of aqueous extracts of soils and bottom ash resulting from municipal solid waste incineration, using the comet and micronucleus tests on amphibian (Xenopus laevis) larvae and bacterial assays (MutatoxR and Ames tests) [PDF]

, 2006
The management of contaminated soils and wastes is a matter of considerable human concern. The present study evaluates the genotoxic potential of aqueous extracts of two soils (leachates) and of bottom ash resulting from municipal solid waste ...

Assessment of the genotoxicity of olive mill waste water (OMWW) with the Vicia faba micronucleus test [PDF]

, 2007
The present study concerns the genotoxicity of olive mill waste water (OMWW) generated in mills producing olive oil in Morocco. The Vicia faba micronucleus test was used to evaluate the genotoxicity of OMWW and the six major phenolic compounds identified

Mutagenic impact on fish of runoff events in agricultural areas in south-west France [PDF]

, 2011
When heavy rainfall follows herbicide application, the intense surface runoff causes stream water contamination. Aquatic organisms are then briefly exposed to a complex mixture of contaminants.

Assessment of the genotoxicity of Cu and Zn in raw and anaerobically digested slurry with the Vicia faba micronucleus test [PDF]

, 2009
Genotoxicity of Cu and Zn was assessed by use of the micronucleus (MN) test on Vicia faba roots. Plants were exposed to various leachates of rawand anaerobically digested pig slurry, with maximum total concentrations of 200MCu and 600MZn.

Optimisation of an automated high-throughput micronucleus (HiTMiN) assay to measure genotoxicity of environmental contaminants

, 2022
Anthropogenic contaminants can have a variety of adverse effects on exposed organisms, including genotoxicity in the form of DNA damage. One of the most commonly used methods to evaluate genotoxicity in exposed organisms is the micronucleus (MN) assay ...
