Determination of DNA Damage in Floriculturists Exposed to Mixtures of Pesticides
The aim of the study was to determine possible DNA damage in floriculturists chronically exposed to pesticides. Leukocytes from 52 workers, 46 environmentally exposed, and 38 control individuals were evaluated with the comet assay. Serum from all individuals was also analyzed for pesticides using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. A statistically significant difference in DNA frag...
متن کاملNeurobehavioural effects among workers occupationally exposed to organophosphorous pesticides.
AIMS To identify neurobehavioural deficits among workers exposed to organophosphorous (OP) pesticides in their occupation. METHODS This study was conducted during the period when pesticides were applied to cotton crops in the fields in Menoufiya Governorate, Egypt. Fifty two occupationally exposed male workers were compared to 50 unexposed male controls who were similar in age, socioeconomic ...
متن کاملAbsence of mutagenicity in peripheral lymphocytes of workers occupationally exposed to methyl methacrylate.
Chromosome aberration rates and sister chromatid exchange frequency were examined in the peripheral lymphocytes of 38 male workers who were engaged in organic glass production and exposed to methyl methacrylate (MMA) vapors at the concentrations of 0.9 ppm to 71.9 ppm. The results were compared with the findings in the concurrent nonexposed male subjects. Comparison of the exposed group with th...
متن کاملChromosomal damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes from nurses occupationally exposed to chemicals.
In the present study, we evaluated the induced genome damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes from a sample of nurses occupationally exposed to low doses of different chemicals. A comprehensive multi-biomarker approach using cytogenetic endpoints was employed for analyzing chromosomal aberrations (CAs) and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) assay. The study included 20 nurses and 20 control subject...
متن کاملBiomonitoring of Toxic Effects of Pesticides in Occupationally Exposed Individuals
BACKGROUND Workers in pesticide manufacturing industries are constantly exposed to pesticides. Genetic biomonitoring provides an early identification of potential cancer and genetic diseases in exposed populations. The objectives of this biomonitoring study were to assess DNA damage through comet assay in blood samples collected from industry workers and compare these results with those of clas...
