Micronucleus test with cyclophosphamide using mouse peripheral blood reticulocytes.

The usefulness of the micronucleus test using supravital staining of peripheral blood reticulocytes with acridine orange was evaluated in two laboratories after administering cyclophosphamide (CYP) as a model chemical by intraperitoneal injection (i.p.) to CD-1 mice. The frequencies of micronucleated peripheral reticulocytes (MNRETs) increased dose-dependently at each sampling time. There were no significant differences in the results obtained with this new method by the two laboratories. Although the induction of MNRETs was delayed by about 24 h compared to that of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MNPCEs) in the bone marrow, the frequencies of MNRETs and MNPCEs were almost identical at each optical sampling time, 24 h for MNPCEs and 48 h for MNRETs. Therefore, it is concluded that this method is a suitable alternative to that using femoral marrow cells.[1]
