Genetic effect of low doses of radiation in occupationally exposed workers in coal mines and in coal fired plants.

Abstract:

:Analyses of structural aberrations of chromosomes and of the body burden of lead-210 were carried out in a group of workers occupationally exposed to chemical pollutants and low doses of ionizing radiation during a technological process in which coal is used as fuel. A parallel study was performed in a control group of workers. In the exposed group the percentage of chromatid and chromosome aberrations and the results of radiochemical analyses were higher than in the control group.
