The environmental estrogen, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), and its metabolites have been implicated in the development of breast cancer through mechanisms that remain to be elucidated. It has been hypothesized that exposure to DDT and its metabolites, during critical periods of development,
The production of micronuclei in rat bone marrow cells by the synthetic pyrethroid insecticide meothrin was investigated. Three different doses of meothrin were orally administered to rats for 14 consecutive days. All tested doses of meothrin increased the frequency of micronucleated polychromatic e
## ABSTRACT The micronucleus test (MNT) was applied in the epithelial cells from the bladder of mice treated with benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), 2‐acetylaminofluorene (2‐AAF) and cyclophosphamide (CP). Micronuclei (MN) were scored at different time on Feulgen and fast green stained smear preparations of exf
Three metabolites of the industrial chemical 1,3-butadiene (BD), namely butadiene monoepoxide (BMO, 3,4-epoxy-1-butene), diepoxide (DEB, 1,2;3,4-diepoxybutane), and diolepoxide (DE, 3,4- epoxybutane-1,2-diol) were studied for germ cell mutagenicity using the rat spermatid micronucleus (MN) test. All
