Cytogenetic analysis of genotoxic effects in subjects employed in heat power industry

Chromosomal aberration rate has been estimated in peripheral blood lymphocytes of subjects occupationally exposed to a set of hazardous factors (employees of the Kemerovo Heat Power Plant). The frequency of metaphases with aberrations in the workers (3.23 ± 0.26%, N = 104) is significantly higher th...

Zusammenfassung:Chromosomal aberration rate has been estimated in peripheral blood lymphocytes of subjects occupationally exposed to a set of hazardous factors (employees of the Kemerovo Heat Power Plant). The frequency of metaphases with aberrations in the workers (3.23 ± 0.26%, N = 104) is significantly higher than in control subjects (2.11 ± 0.28%, N = 70). The cytogenetic aberrations did not depend on the sex, age, duration of employment, or smoking.
