Genotoxic and cytotoxic evaluation of the herbicide flurochloridone on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells

► Flurochloridone-induced geno-cytotoxicity on mammalian CHO cells. ► The pure herbicide and formulated products induced SCEs. ► The pure herbicide and formulated products inhibited cell proliferation. ► The pure herbicide and formulated products diminished cell viability. ► The study is the first report evidencing flurochloridone-induced geno-cytotoxicity.
