Cytogenetic study in spermatocytes of mice and Chinese hamsters after treatment with isoniazid (INH)
Abstract
Meiotic chromosomes of spermatocytes from INH-treated male mice and Chinese hamsters were analysed for chromosome aberrations in diakinesis-metaphase I and metaphase II. The experiments were performed in two laboratories while a third laboratory participated in the chromosome evaluation. No enhancement of chromosome aberrations could be observed after acute treatment of early primary spermatocytes or chronic treatment of spermatogonia with INH.
