title: [Results of the cytogenetic examination of the people taking part in the clean-up of the accident at the Chernobyl AES].
abstract: Chromosome preparations from peripheral blood cells of 117 subjects who took part in liquidation of Chernobyl NPP accident consequences in 1986 have been investigated. The number of chromosome aberrations has been shown to increase considerably. A short-term exposure has been found to be 5-7 times more effective than long-term one.
