Resumen |
Cytogenetic changes and cell-cycle kinetics were examined in the cultured lymphocytes of 16 workers exposed to styrene in two polyester fabrication workshops, where the airborne styrene concentrations were 2-211ppm in one and 30ppm in the other. The exposed workers showed no incrase in chromosomal aberrations or sister-chromatid exchange frequencies when compared with a control group. A slight decrease in the mitotic index and a slight inhibition of cell growth were detected. No relation was found between cytogenetic findings and styrene exposure intensity as determined by air analysis, personal sampling, or urinalysis for metabolites. |
