TLDR
Aqueous extract of edible dried fruits of Phyllanthus emblica was fed to Mus musculus for seven consecutive days prior to treatment with different doses of nickel chloride, finding the greater efficacy of the fruit extract could be due to the interaction of its various natural components rather than to any single constituent.About:

Review on some plants of Indian traditional medicine with antioxidant activity.
Paolo Scartezzini,Ester Speroni +1 more
TL;DR: Seven plants contain antioxidant principles, that can explain and justify their use in traditional medicine in the past as well as the present, and are viewed for their historical, etymological, morphological, phytochemical and pharmacological aspects.

Evaluation of the rodent micronucleus assay in the screening of IARC carcinogens (groups 1, 2A and 2B) the summary report of the 6^ collaborative study by CSGMT/JEMS MMS. Collaborative study of the Micronucleus Group Test
TL;DR: Structural-activity relationship analysis suggested that the micronucleus assay is more sensitive to the genetic toxicity of some classes of chemicals than to those carcinogens with stronger evidence human carcinogenicity.

TL;DR: In the 6th MMS/CSGMT collaborative study as mentioned in this paper, IARC groups 1 (human carcinogen), 2A (probable human carcinogen) and 2B (possible human carcinogens) were selected from 100 commercially available chemicals and chemical groups on which there was little or no micronucleus assay data.
Journal ArticleDOI
A core in vitro genotoxicity battery comprising the Ames test plus the in vitro micronucleus test is sufficient to detect rodent carcinogens and in vivo genotoxins.
TL;DR: There is no convincing evidence that any genotoxic rodent carcinogens or in vivo genotoxins would remain undetected in an in vitro test battery consisting of Ames+MNvit.

The Micronucleus Test for Cytogenetic Analysis
TL;DR: Micronuclei originate from chromatin which for different reasons has been lagging in anaphase, and in the course of telophase this material is included into one or the other daughter cell where it either can fuse with the main nucleus or form one or several secondary nuclei.

Dietary inhibitors of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis.
TL;DR: In this chapter, inhibitors of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis that can arise as components of diet have been reviewed and most of the inhibitors have been demonstrated to be effective against a specific class of mutagens or carcinogens.
