Short Communication Cytogenetic damage in the buccal epithelium of Brazilian aviators occupationally exposed to agrochemicals

Abstract: The frequency of micronuclei in both buccal cells and peripheral blood lymphocytes is extensively used as a biomarker of chromosomal damage and genome stability in human populations. We examined whether prolonged exposure to complex mixtures of pesticides leads to an increase in cytogenetic damage. The exposed group comprised 50 agricultural aviators, mainly from Central and Southeast regions of Brazil, who had inhaled agrochemicals for more than 10 years without personal protection equipment; the contr… Show more

“…Estas aeronaves, já contemplavam em seus projetos o tipo de atividade executada e os perigos envolvidos. A falta do uso, ou uso inadequado de EPI e EPC pode contribuir para a exposição aos produtos químicos aplicados (MINASI et al, 2011;RICHTER et al, 1980) e ao ruído ambiental (TOBIAS, 1968). A ineficiência dos EPI e EPC pode estar associada também a durabilidade e falta de inspeção (BILLINGS, 1963;TOBIAS, 1968).…”
