Download or read book OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals Section 4 Test No 470 Mammalian Erythrocyte Pig a Gene Mutation Assay written by OECD and published by OECD Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Test Guideline describes an in vivo erythrocyte Pig-a gene mutation assay (hereafter called the Pig-a assay) which uses an endogenous mammalian gene, the phosphatidylinositol glycan class A gene (Pig-a), as a reporter of somatic-cell gene mutation. In vivo gene mutation tests, such as the Pig-a assay, are especially relevant for assessing mutagenicity because physiological factors, such as absorption of the test chemical from the site of exposure, distribution of the test chemical throughout the test system via systemic circulation, and in vivo metabolism and DNA repair processes, all contribute to the mutagenic responses.
