Abstract

Micronucleus tests of potassium bromate (KBrO 3) and potassium chromate (K 2CrO 4) were conducted with peripheral blood reticulocytes (PB-RETs) of CD-1 male mice dosed intraperitoneally. Peripheral blood cells collected from the tail were stained supravitally with acridine orange (AO) using AO-coated glass slides. Both KBrO 3 and K 2CrO 4 induced micronuclei in PB-RETs in the same manner as in polychromatic erythrocytes of bone marrow.
