The concept of Genotoxic effect in scientific sources
From: International Journal of Pharmacology
(1) Genotoxic effects, such as micronuclei formation and chromosome aberrations, have been shown to increase in operating room personnel due to occupational exposure to volatile anesthetics.[1] (2) An effect that causes damage to the genetic material of cells.[2] (3) Genotoxic effects have been suggested for neonicotinoid class drugs in studies concerning their impact on mammals.[3] (4) Genotoxic effects are the detrimental impacts on genetic material that can be caused by exposure to certain chemicals.[4]
From: The Malaysian Journal of Medical Sciences
(1) This is the effect of being toxic to the genetic material, and oxygen and its derivatives have this effect and could be the primary sources of oxidative damage to a number of tissues and organs in tuberculosis.[5]
From: Journal of Medicinal Plants for Economic Development
(1) This describes the ability of a substance, like cypermethrin, to cause harm to genetic material, leading to potential mutations or cellular damage, as the text suggests.[6]
From: International Journal of Pharmacology
(1) The harmful impact of pesticides on genetic material, which can be prevented through educational programs, proper application, and reduced agrochemical use.[7] (2) Tetrapleura tetraptera has been shown to have no influence on cell proliferation and does not induce chromosomal aberration or sister chromatid exchanges in Chinese hamster ovary cells, indicating no genotoxic effect.[8] (3) Genotoxic effects are observed as a result of acrylamide exposure in adult male albino rats, specifically affecting their liver tissue.[9] (4) This refers to damage to genetic material, such as DNA, caused by physical or chemical agents.[10]
