title: [The micronucleus test in human exfoliative cells as a method for studying the action of mutagens/carcinogens].
abstract: The data concerning the application of micronucleus assay in human exfoliated cells have been analyzed in the review. These data have shown that the study of micronuclei in human exfoliated cells is very promising, sensitive and rapid method for detection of action of mutagens/carcinogens as well as antimutagens/anticarcinogens on human organism in vivo.
