Molecular changes in the offspring of liquidators who emigrated to Israel from the Chernobyl disaster area.

Environmental health perspectives - 1 Dec 1997

Abstract excerpt

The primary goal of this research was to reveal de novo mutations in the liquidators (cleanup personnel) who emigrated to Israel from the Chernobyl disaster area. We used genome fingerprinting simple sequence repeat-anchored polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and random amplified polymorphic DNA PCR (RAPD PCR). The methodology involved a combination of RAPD PCR, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and...
