title: [Use of the calculation of the micronuclei in human cells in the detection of cytogenetic injuries by environmental factors].
abstract: The review is concerned with an analysis of the data reported in this country and abroad on the use of micronuclei calculation for revealing cytogenetic injuries by environmental factors. It has been shown that the micronucleus test possesses a rather high sensitivity, provides information and affords an objective judgement about the action of mutagenic environmental factors on man.
