Increased frequency of chromosome translocations in airline pilots with long-term flying experience

11 Dec 2008

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Chromosome translocations are an established biomarker of cumulative exposure to external ionising radiation. Airline pilots are exposed to cosmic ionising radiation, but few flight crew studies have examined translocations in relation to flight experience. METHODS: We determined the frequency of translocations in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of 83 airline pilots and 50 comparison subjects (mean...
