In this study we tested the suitability of the human linearly correlated with colony formation in AIG epithelial lung cell line BEAS-2B for in vitro studies and with the number of cells within individual coloof lung carcinogenesis.

Also, the number of micronuclei lung carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene (B[a]P) to assess increased with the formation of DNA adducts. the relationship between DNA adduct levels, cell
