This study set out to analyze biomarkers for genotoxic events, e.g., oxidative DNA damage, chromosomal damage and hprt mutations, among flight personnel, who are known to be occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation of cosmic origin. Twenty-three flight engineers were recruited while ground perso
## Abstract Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are ubiquitous occupational and environmental pollutants and the urinary excretion of 1βhydroxypyrene (1βOHP) is classically measured for the determination of PAH exposure internal dose. Some of PAH are tumorigenic due to their metabolites ability
