Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: As asbestos presents a direct genetic hazard for humans, a small-scale molecular epidemiological study was conducted to monitor 61 subjects long-term exposed to asbestos in comparison with 49 town controls and 21 control subjects from administration of the same factory. RESULTS: Asbestos exposed workers had significantly higher numbers of chromosomal aberrations compared with both control groups...
