Development of a micronucleus test using the EpiAirway™ organotypic human airway model

Abstract Background The use of organotypic human tissue models in genotoxicity has increased as an alternative to animal testing. Genotoxicity is generally examined using a battery of in vitro assays such as Ames and micronucleus (MN) tests that cover gene mutations and structural and numerical chro...
