OECD 488 Big Blue® Transgenic Rodent Somatic and Germ Cell Gene Mutation Assay Test

Gentronix offers the Big Blue® Transgenic Rodent Somatic and Germ Cell Gene Mutation Assay to support mutagenicity assessment in compliance with OECD 488 guideline.

SERVICE INFORMATION

Big Blue® studies play a key role in assessing in vivo mutagenicity risk for materials where pre-existing data indicates a potential genotoxicity risk to human health and the environment. Following continued growth in the assay and a large laboratory footprint expansion, Gentronix now offers the assay in both rat and mice in a wide array of tissue types.

We presented the establishment of Big Blue® laboratory proficiency at SOT 2023. To view our poster, click here.
