Results and discussion

Details on results:
No DNA adducts were detectable neither in the liver nor in the stomach.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Based on the limit of detection, a maximum possible DNA binding of AA will be at least 100,000 times below the DNA binding potency of the standard carcinogen aflatoxin B1.
