Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2015 The genotoxicity of cobalt metal and cobalt compounds has been widely studied. Several publications show induction of chromosomal aberrations, micronuclei or DNA damage in mammalian cells in vitro in the absence of S9. Mixed results were seen in gene mutation studies in bacteria and mammalian cells in vitro, and in chromosomal aberration or ...

Risk of genotoxic damage in schoolchildren exposed to organochloride pesticides [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractThis study identified and determined organochloride pesticide (OCs) concentrations in hair samples from children at two elementary schools: one exposed to fumigations in agricultural fields, the other unexposed. Three concentrations of OCs levels in the hair were compared (high, medium, low), and total nuclear abnormalities in buccal cells were

Low-Dose Radiation and Genotoxic Chemicals Can Protect against Stochastic Biological Effects
Dose-Response, 2004 A protective apoptosis-mediated (PAM) process that is turned on in mammalian cells by low-dose photon (X and γ) radiation and appears to also be turned on by the genotoxic chemical ethylene oxide is discussed.
