[Genetic-hygienic regulation of pesticide use taking into account their potential mutagenic danger].

The principle is described of genetic-hygienic reglamentation of pesticides-mutagens application based on the estimating of the degree of their genetic hazard using several parameters characterizing the peculiarities of their mutagenic effect. Substances may be classified into groups according to their mutagenic hazard. The results are given of the evaluation of the mutagenic hazards of some pesticides and recommendations are given for the genetic-hygienic reglamentation of their application taking into account their mutagenicity.
