Abstract The Biomarkers of Nutrition for Development (BOND) project is designed to provide
evidence-based advice to anyone with an interest in the role of nutrition in health …

Micronuclei (MNi) are among the most widely studied biomarkers of DNA damage and
chromosomal instability in humans. They originate from chromosome fragments or intact …

The study of DNA damage at the chromosome level is an essential part of genetic toxicology
because chromosomal mutation is an important event in carcinogenesis. The micronucleus …

The cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome assay is a comprehensive system for measuring
DNA damage, cytostasis and cytotoxicity. DNA damage events are scored specifically in …

Criteria for scoring micronuclei and nucleoplasmic bridges in binucleated cells in the
cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay for isolated human lymphocyte cultures are described …

The frequency of micronuclei (MN) in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) is extensively
used as a biomarker of chromosomal damage and genome stability in human populations …

The human buccal micronucleus cytome assay (BMCyt) is one of the most widely used
techniques to measure genetic damage in human population studies. Reducing protocol …

The micronucleus (MN) assay in exfoliated buccal cells is a useful and minimally invasive
method for monitoring genetic damage in humans. This overview has concluded that …

Micronucleus (MN) frequency in cytokinesis-blocked peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL)
has become one of the best-established biomarkers for studying DNA damage occurring in …

The objective of this state of the art paper is to review the mechanisms of induction, the fate,
the methodology, the sensitivity/specificity and predictivity of two major cytogenetic …
