Abstract
The frequencies of micronuclei in cultured cytokinesis-blocked lymphoc ytes of an urban industrial population of 188 persons were determined. For the mean and SD, 16.0 +/- 7.3 per 1000 CB cells were obtained. A slight but definite age dependence - appr. 0.2 parts per thousand incr ease per year on average - was indicated by thorough statistical analy sis.
