We conducted simultaneous liver and peripheral blood micronucleus assays in young rats with seven rodent hepatocarcinogens-4,4'-methylenedianiline (MDA), quinoline, o-toluidine, 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine (CPDA), dimethylnitrosamine (DMN), p-dimethylaminoazobenzene (DAB), and di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP)-and two mutagenic chemicals-kojic acid and methylmethanesulfonate (MMS). Quinoline, DMN, and DAB were
