- W2023632989 abstract "In genetic toxicology it is important to know whether chemicals should be regarded as clearly hazardous or whether they can be considered sufficiently safe, which latter would be the case from the genotoxicologist's view if their genotoxic effects are nil or at least significantly below a predefined minimal effect level. A previously presented statistical decision procedure which allows one to make precisely this distinction is now extended to the question of how optimal experimental sample size can be determined in advance for genotoxicity experiments using the somatic mutation and recombination tests (SMART) of Drosophila. Optimally, the statistical tests should have high power to minimise the chance for statistically inconclusive results. Based on the normal test, the statistical principles are explained, and in an application to the wing spot assay, it is shown how the practitioner can proceed to optimise sample size to achieve numerically satisfactory conditions for statistical testing. The somatic genotoxicity assays of Drosophila are in principle based on somatic spots (mutant clones) that are recovered in variable numbers on individual flies. The underlying frequency distributions are expected to be of the Poisson type. However, some care seems indicated with respect to this latter assumption, because pooling of data over individuals, sexes, and experiments, for example, can (but need not) lead to data which are overdispersed, i.e, the data may show more variability than theoretically expected. It is an undesired effect of overdispersion that in comparisons of pooled totals it can lead to statistical testing which is too liberal, because overall it yields too many seemingly significant results. If individual variability considered alone is not contradiction with Poisson expectation, however, experimental planning can help to minimise the undesired effects of overdispersion on statistical testing of pooled totals. The rule for the practice is to avoid disproportionate sampling. It is recalled that for optimal power in statistical testing, it is preferable to use equal total numbers of flies in the control and treated series. Statistical tests which are based on Poisson expectations are too liberal if there is overdispersion in the data due to excess individual variability. In this case we propose to use the U test as a non-parametric two-sample test and to adjust the estimated optimal sample size according to (i) the overdispersion observed in a large historical control and (ii) the relative efficiency of the U test in comparison to the t test and related parametric tests." @default.
