DNA damage biomarker end points scored using CBMN-Cyt assay in HOK cells on day 11 in relation to increasing Zn concentration: a frequency of MNi in 1000 BN cells from cultures treated with ZnSO4, b frequency of MNi in 1000 BN cells from cultures treated with ZnC, c frequency of NPBs in 1000 BN cells from cultures treated with ZnSO4, d frequency of NPBs in 1000 BN cells from cultures treated with ZnC, e frequency of NBuds in 1000 BN cells from cultures treated with ZnSO4, and f frequency of NBuds in 1000 BN cells from cultures treated with ZnC. Groups not sharing the same letter are significantly different to each other. (P values refer to One-way ANOVA analysis: P < 0.05). Results shown are mean ± standard error (n = 6)
