Micronuclei and DNA damage in peripheral lymphocyte of workers occupationally exposed to octachlorodipropyl ether

Abstract

Abstract

Objective To understand the effects of octachlorodipropyl ether on the health of workers.
Methods To make an epidemiological survey of the wor kers occupationally exposed to octachlorodipropyl ether(S2)by micronucleus test and single cell gel electrophoresis assay(SCG E).
Results There was no significant increase in frequency of micronuclei of those-exposed to octachlorodipropyl ether(S2)as compared with the control group.DNA damage was more severe in the group exposed to octachlorodipropyl ether(S2).
Conclusion Occupational exposure to S2 producing process may cause DNAdamages in peripheral Lymphocyte of workers.
