Some chemotherapeutic approaches have proposed the use of antioxidants such as vitamin C (VC) to minimize the cytotoxicity and damage induced in normal tissue by antitumor agents that produce free radicals. Nevertheless, VC can also be cytotoxic, genotoxic, and harmful when combined with antitumor a

## Abstract Potassium metabisulfite (PMB) is used as an antimicrobial substance in many kinds of foods. In the present study, the effects of PMB on chromosome aberrations (CAs), sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), and micronucleus (MN) formation in human lymphocytes and as well as its effect on CAs
The induction, distribution, and persistence of chromosome aberrations in human lymphocytes exposed to X-rays in G0 were analyzed in 48-, 70-, and 94-hr cultures by conventional metaphase analysis and painting of chromosomes 1, 2, and 4 by FISH. All cells that had been scored by FISH were relocated
