Abstract：
:The herbicides atrazine and linuron, found in Wisconsin's groundwater, were tested alone and in combination, both in vivo and in vitro, to determine their individual and combined genotoxic effects. Human lymphocytes exposed in vitro to either 1 microgram/ml linuron or 0.001 microgram/ml atrazine showed little chromosome damage, whereas significant chromosome damage was observed in lymphocytes simultaneously exposed to 0.5 microgram/ml linuron and 0.0005 microgram/ml atrazine, suggesting at least an additive model. In another experiment, mice were fed 20 micrograms/ml atrazine, 10 micrograms/ml linuron, or a combination of 10 micrograms/ml atrazine and 5 micrograms/ml linuron in their drinking water for 90 days, after which bone marrow cells and cultured splenocytes were examined for chromosomal damage. None of the treatment groups showed chromosome damage in bone marrow, whereas the cultured splenocytes demonstrated damage in all treatment groups. These experiments suggest that, prior to assessing the risk of a herbicide, it may be necessary to test it in combinations which mimic the mixtures which would occur under field conditions, such as in contaminated groundwater.
