| Abstract |
Cytogenetic studies in workers of 4 occupations showed an abnormal increase in chromosome aberrations in diesel-engined vehicle drivers. At filling stations drivers are exposed to fuel oil and exhaust gas vapours in addition to a skin hazard from the filling nozzles, which are usually covered with a film of oil. Wearing of gloves during filling is recommended. |
