Popis: The cytotoxicity of 30 chemicals was assessed in rat hepatocyte primary cultures using four methods: lactate dehydrogenase release, neutral red uptake, the MTT assay, and measurement of total protein content. Comparison of the data obtained in vitro (IC50 values) and in vivo (LD50 values) resulted in a significant correlation (p Assessment of the cytotoxicity of 54 additional chemicals would provide a more accurate predictability limit around l,500μg/ml and the estimated predictability confidence interval could be reduced to 90–100%.
