일부 중금속이 인혈배양 임파구의 염색체이상 및 자매염색분체교환에 미치는 영향

To assay the cytogenetic toxicity of $NiCl_2,\;K_2Cr_2O_7CdCl_2,\;and\;HgCl_2$, the frequencies of sister chromatid exchanges(SCEs) and chromosomal aberrations were observed in the metaphase chromosomes of the human lymphocytes which were cultured with above materials. The frequencies of SCEs are dose-dependently increased by all materials in this experiment. Chromosomal aberrations, especially gap and break, are increased by the nickel and chromic compounds, while not significantly increased by the cadmium and mercurial compounds. This results indicate the dose dependent relationship between the frequencies of SCEs and the concentrations of the heavy metals, but the increasing rates of the SCEs induced by the heavy metals are less sensitive than other mutagens or carcinogens which were confirmed. 일부 중금속에 의한 배양임파구에서 세포유전학적 독성을 알아보고자 $NiCl_2,\;K_2Cr_2O_7CdCl_2$ 및 $HgCl_2$에 의한 SCE빈도 및 염색체이상을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. SCE빈도는 공시한 중금속 모두에서 농도증가에 따라 대조군의 $7.20{\pm}2.5$에 비해 유의하게 증가되었으며(p
