Three rat liver foci bioassays (A, B, C), proposed for routine testing of suggested carcinogens, have been compared with respect to their efficiency as short term screening test systems. The objective was to select the most suitable assay in view of a reliable detection of initiating and promoting agents, sensitivity, expenditure of work and animals' welfare. The evaluation of dose-response relationships, measured as number and area of enzyme-deficient foci dependent on the dose, revealed that the initiation-promotion schedule using 3 weeks old female rats was most sensitive (A). Six weeks old rats and PH at the beginning followed by promotion (B) or selection (C) were less sensitive. Protocol (C) was least sensitive and impaired animals we...
