Resumen Studies are reported in 12 drivers of diesel lorries, 12 drivers of petrol lorries, 12 motor vehicle inspectors, and 12 controls. There was a clear relation between smoking and chromosome changes. It was suspected that a working environment containing high concentrations of diesel fuel can cause an excess of chromosome breaks and of sister chromatid exchanges.
