Abstract
Our results revealed a correlation between micronucleus induction in hepatocytes and hepatocarcinogenicity. This technique can be useful for the detection of micronucleus-inducing chemicals that require metabolic activation, and it enables simultaneous comparison of the micronucleus-inducing potential of chemicals in the liver and peripheral blood in the same individual.
