Whole blood of 50 smokers who were exposed to pesticides was set up in RPMI 1640 medium, and observed for sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs), cell kinetics (CK) and mitotic index (MI). As controls, blood samples were collected from 20 non-smokers (control I) and 27 smokers (control II) who were not exposed to pesticides. A significant increase in SCEs was observed as the duration of exposure increased. The frequency of M1 metaphases increased significantly whereas M2 and M3+ metaphases decreased in the exposed group. The mitotic index increased in control II and in the exposed population while it showed a decrease at 11-25 years' exposure.
将50名接触农药的吸烟者的全血置于RPMI 1640培养基中,观察其姐妹染色单体交换(SCE)、细胞动力学(CK)和有丝分裂指数(MI)。作为对照,采集了20名未接触农药的非吸烟者(对照I)和27名未接触农药的吸烟者(对照II)的血样。随着接触时间的增加,观察到SCE显著增加。暴露组中M1中期的频率显著增加,而M2和M3 +中期减少。对照II和暴露人群的有丝分裂指数增加,而在暴露11 - 25年时则呈下降趋势。
