Abstract

The frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MPCE) and normochromatic erythrocytes (MNCE) was studied in Swiss albino mice treated with 0, 0,025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 mg/kg body weight of cadmium chloride. It was observed that cadmium chloride induce a dose-dependent increase in the frequency of MPCE and MNCE. However, this increase was significant only after treatment with 0.05 mg/kg of CdCl₂ (MPCE). The polychromatic and normochromatic erythrocyte ratio (PCE/NCE ratio) declined with the increase in CdCl₂ dose and this depletion was dose-dependent. A significant decline was observed only after 0.25 mg/kg CdCl₂. The dose-response relationship for all three parameters was linear-quadratic.
