Abstract

A micronucleus assay based on cytogenetic analysis of early spermatids (Tates et al.; Mutation Research 121:131-138, 1983) was applied to determine if the chelating agent ethylenedinitrilotetraacetic acid (EDTA) may induce aneuploidy in mouse meiotic cells. Previous results indicated aneuploidogenic...
