About this document

The Method of Allium Anaphase Telophase Chromosome Aberration Assay by Anonymous PIlHE6tOE is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document describes the Allium anaphase-telophase chromosome aberration assay method for assessing the genotoxicity of environmental samples. The assay uses onion root tip cells and involves a 96-hour root growth inhibition test to determine sample concentrations, followed by a 48-hour exposure to the samples to induce chromosome aberrations, which are then scored under a microscope. The assay is simple, reliable, and can test wastewater, soil, and other complex mixtures for genotoxic effects.
