Abstract:
Spontaneous cytogenetic aberrations were analyzed in bone-marrow cells and cultured peripheral lymphocytes from the same animals. No significant differences in the total number of cells with aberrations or total aberrations were detected between the bone-marrow cells and cultured lymphocytes. It was concluded that short-term culture does not contribute significantly to in vivo aberration yield within the experimental conditions used.
