L'articolo mette a confronto le prestazioni di Microtox - un sistema di test in vitro che utilizza batteri bioluminescenti per rilevare sostanze tossiche in diversi substrati come acqua, aria, suolo e sedimenti con Fetax (Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay in Xenopus). L'obiettivo è quello di valutare se con un noto inquinante ambientale come l'acido 4-cloro-2-metilfenossiacetico Fetax può funzionare come un test affidabile sia per la tossicità che per la teratogenesi.
The article compares the performances of Microtox - an in vitro testing system which uses bioluminescent bacteria to detect toxic substances in different substrates such as water, air, soils and sediments with Fetax (Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay in Xenopus). The aim is to assess whether with a well-known environmental pollutant such as 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid Fetax may perform as a reliable both toxicity and theratogenesis test.
