RENEB intercomparison exercises analyzing micronuclei (Cytokinesis-block Micronucleus Assay)

Purpose: In the framework of the ‘Realizing the European Network of Biodosimetry’ (RENEB) project, two intercomparison exercises were conducted to assess the suitability of an optimized version of the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay, and to evaluate the capacity of a large laboratory network pe...
