Low doses of ochratoxin A induce micronucleus formation and delay DNA repair in human lymphocytes [PDF]
The contamination of food commodities by fungal toxins has attracted great interest because many of these mycotoxins are responsible for different diseases, including cancer and other chronic illnesses. Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin naturally present

Micronucleus induction by low doses of X-rays in Vicia faba root tips [PDF]
Studies on the micronucleus test in Vicia faba root tips (VM test) were carried out in order to estimate the effects at low doses of X-rays (1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 R). The control value of micronucleus frequency is about 0.44/1000 cells.

Cytotoxic, Genotoxic, and Mutagenic Effects of Organotellurane RF07 in Female Swiss Mice (Mus musculus). [PDF]
ABSTRACT The organotellurane RF07 (RF07) is an organic compound containing tellurium, a rare semi‐metal, and its leishmanicidal and antimalarial activity has already been reported in previous studies. This study evaluated the toxic effects of RF07 at 0.42, 21.37, and 42.75 mg/kg using comet assay, micronucleus test, and hematological/biochemical tests ...

MICRONUCLEUS TEST OF MOFEZOLAC (N-22)
A micronucleus test using BDF1 male mice was conducted in order to evaluate the in vivo mutagenicity of mofezolac (N-22). N-22 was orally administered at doses of 75, 150, 300 and 600 mg/kg, with a sampling time of 24 hr. The frequency of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei was 0.07-0.08% in the groups treated with N-22 and did not differ ...
