Background: Arsenic, an environmental pollutant, is a carcinogenic metalloid and also an anticancer agent.
Objective: To evaluate the toxicity of arsenic nanoparticles in rat hepatocytes.
Methods: Freshly isolated rat hepatocytes were exposed to 0, 20, 40, and 100 μM of arsenic nanoparticles and its bulk counterpart.
Background: The increasing use of herbal drugs and their ease of accessibility and availability have necessitated the use of mutagenicity test to analyze their toxicity and safety.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the genotoxicity of Sankol herbal medicine in DNA breakage of rat hepatocytes in comparison with H2O2 by single cell gel electrophoresis technique or comet assay.
Materials And Methods: In the current study hepatocytes were prepared from male wistar rats.
