Abstract excerpt
The in vivo Pig-a gene mutation assay serves to evaluate the genotoxic potential of chemicals. In the rat blood-based assay, the lack of CD59 on the surface of erythrocytes is quantified via fluorophore-labeled antibodies in conjunction with flow cytometric analysis to determine the frequency of Pig-a mutant phenotype cells. The assay has achieved regulatory relevance as it is suggested as an in vivo follow-up...
