Any other information on results incl. tables

According to the results of the present study, the single oral administration of 2-Butene-1,4-diol did not lead to any increase in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes containing either small or large micronuclei.

 

No inhibition of erythropoiesis determined from the ratio of polychromatic to normochromatic erythrocytes was detected.

 

Under the experimental conditions chosen here, the test substance does not have any chromosome-damaging (clasto- genic) effect, and there were no indications of any impairment of chromosome distribution in the course of mitosis.
