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.

Evaluation of the rodent micronucleus assay in the screening of IARC carcinogens (groups 1, 2A and 2B) the summary report of the 6th collaborative study by CSGMT/JEMS MMS. Collaborative Study of the Micronucleus Group Test. Mammalian Mutagenicity Study Group.

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.

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.
