摘要

Highlights ► We developed a repeated-dose liver micronucleus (MN) assay using normal adult rats. ► Chemical hepatocarcinogens significantly induced micronucleated hepatocytes in the assay. ► A new hepatocyte isolation technique without in situ perfusion was simultaneously established. ► The assay method enables integration of liver MN assay into general toxicity studies.
