Abstract excerpt
The in vivo rodent Pig-a mutation assay is a sensitive test to identify exposure to mutagenic substances, and has been proposed as an assay for the identification of impurities for pharmaceuticals. Red blood cells (RBCs) and reticulocytes (RETs) are analyzed by flow cytometry after exposure to potentially mutagenic chemicals for cells deficient in the cell surface anchored protein CD59, representing mutation in...
