Toxicity of the leachates was evaluated using the Microtox test, umu test (a mutagenicity assay), yeast inhibition zone test, acute lethality tests using crustaceans, and root elongation test using lettuce. ...
The watery suspension of AGRAGEL exerts no such effects on the eyes of rabbits. Hens' Egg Test The Hen's Egg Test is an alternative test method to reduce animal testing. ...
The paper deals with a possible use of the bacterial detection system of SOS chromotest to test mutagenicity of waste dump water checking the mutagenicity degree on real samples from Praksice waste dump, which is a controlled waste dump with mixed industrial, municipal and inert wastes. ...
Surface water to be employed in drinking water supplies can be characterised both by chemical analysis and mutagenic activity in order to detect genotoxic compounds present as environmental pollutants or produced by drinking water treatments. In our experimental conditions, only two samples out of seven raw and four processed water extracts (Amberlite XAD-2 concentration) gave ...
L929; BHK; Vero; Caco-2 and CEM-SS cells have not shown cytotoxicity even at 10 mg/ml dose. Ames' mutagenicity and micronucleus genotoxicity tests came out negative at 50 mg and 2000 mg/kg doses in Salmonella and bone marrow of IRC mice. ...
