Genotoxicity Testing

In vivo micronucleus test

At Vivotecnia, we conduct the In Vivo Micronucleus Test (OECD TG 474) to assess the potencial of a substance to cause chromosomal damage in living organism. This assay detects micronuclei in erythrocytes of bone marrow or peripheral blood in rodents, providing essential information about genotoxicity in a systemic biological context.

Established – 2000

A regulatory pillar in
genotoxicity testing

The In Vivo Micronucleus Test is required by major regulatory agencies (EMA, FDA, OECD) as a key in vivo assay to confirm or refute positive findings from in vitro tests. It form part of the ICH S2(R1) strategy and supports the evaluation of both clastogenic and aneugenic effects of chemical compounds.
