Peripheral blood lymphocytes from three patients with Down syndrome (DS; trisomy 21; aged 5-6 years) and three age-matched control children were studied for the induction of chromosomal aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs). Cells in G0 were exposed to bleomycin (20-100 micrograms/ml) fo

## Abstract In this study we examined the structural chromosomal aberrations (CA) and sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) of 12 nurses handling moderate quantities of antineoplastic drugs. Urinary thioethers were also measured to assess the potential exposure to alkylβating drugs. Two control groups w
A cohort study of 29 nurses who constantly handled cytostatic drugs, and 29 controls matched according to sex and age, was carried out between 1983 and 1986. Cytogenetic damage was assessed by sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) and chromosomal aberrations. No significant increase in mean number of SCE
By taking advantage of the fact that fluorescent light (FL) induces strand breaks only in bromodeoxyuridine(BrdUy-substituted DNA, and that those breaks eventually lead to the formation of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), the response of SCEs to FL was studied carefully in Chinese hamster chromoso
