Ak. Grishanin et al., MUTAGENIC EFFECTS OF DDVP, CADMIUM AND NA PHTHALENE IN THE ERYTHROCYTES OF MOZAMBIQUE TILAPIA - MICRONUCLEI EVALUATIONS, Genetika, 29(7), 1993, pp. 1213-1217
The mutagenic activity of organophosphate DDVP, heavy metal and polyar
omatic hydrocarbon naphtalene was studied. During the chronic experime
nt the concentrations of about 1/15 LC50 were analysed using micronucl
ei evaluations in the tilapian erythrocytes. The study revealed a pron
ounced mutagenic effect of DDVP and cadmium. Naphtalene had no mutagen
ic activity.
