a

Standard error from 4 experiments with duplicate counts.

b

MNi – number of micronucleated cells in 1,000 binucleated cells.

c

Total number of micronuclei in 1,000 binucleated cells. P value for comparison of all conditions and from individual comparisons.

d

Data were evaluated by generalized linear model with Poisson counts. Chi‐square tests for overdispersion were applied. Stars indicate statistical significance (P ≤ 0.05).
