Bibliography

Describes a method for assessing genotoxicity using Amphibia larvae (Xenopus laevis and Pleurodeles waltl).

This part of ISO21427 specifies a method for assessing genotoxicity using Amphibia larvae (Xenopus laevis and Pleurodeles waltl). The provisions specific to Pleurodeles are described in AnnexA.

The method is applicable to:

  • aqueous effluents;

  • aqueous leachates;

  • eluates of soils;

  • eluates of industrial waste;

  • eluates of sludges from sewage treatment;

  • surface and ground water;

  • water-soluble substances.
