Abstrakt:	The article discusses a study aimed at testing the in vivo toxicity of sodium nitrate and sodium benzoate in terms of DNA content changes of the protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis via the computerized DNA image analysis system. T. pyriformis protozoa were grown axenically in a proteose-peptone broth at 25 degrees Centigrade until they reach late log phase. The findings support a toxicogenomic effect of sodium nitrate and sodium benzoates in selected experimental model T. pyriformis.
