Paclitaxel is a recent chemotherapeutic agent that inhibits tubulin depolymerization in tumoral cells. Despite its increasing use against various human cancers, the genotoxicity of paclitaxel has never been studied on normal human cells. The in vitro genotoxic effects of the drug were evaluated with
