Abstract

Several rodent diets and wood-based materials used as cage bedding for laboratory animals were studied for their cytotoxic and cytochrome P450-inducing properties by an in vitro method. The cell culture system using a mouse hepatoma cell line (Hepa-1) proved to be a convenient and sensitive screening method, and considerable differences among both the feeds and the bedding materials were detected.
