Duodenal crypt health following exposure to Cr(VI): Micronucleus scoring, γ-H2AX immunostaining, and synchrotron X-ray fluorescence microscopy

Highlights: Micronuclei were assessed in crypts of Swiss roll duodenal sections from B6C3F1 mice. Oral gavage of 50 mg/kg cyclophosphamide significantly increased micronuclei. Cr(VI) in drinking water (up to 180 ppm) for 7 days did not increase micronuclei. Chromium was localized to … Continue reading
