A group of 30 coal-tar workers was treated with 1 g of ascorbic acid (AA) orally five times a week for 3 months. The effect of this treatment was assessed on serum IgG, IgM, IgA, aI-entitrypsin, prealbumin, orosomucoid, transferrin, az-macroglobulin, C-reactive protein, ceruloplasmin, the latex fixa
Post-treatment of mutagen-treated human peripheral lymphocytes with a single-strand specific endonuclease from Neurospora crassa leads to a significant elevation of the rate of structural chromosomal aberrations. Our results indicate that DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) are ultimate lesions for the f
