title: Chlorinated drinking water XAD isolates do not affect the sister chromatid exchange frequency.
abstract: The influence of conventional water treatment on genotoxic activity was investigated in the in vitro sister chromatid exchange (SCE) test after isolating the organic contaminants with XAD-2/4 and XAD-8 macroreticular resins. A dose-related, SCE-inducing effect could not be detected in the human peripheral lymphocyte system.
