[Investigation of the level of genetical safety of urban population].
As it is universally recognized, the population is a sound criteria of the environment quality. The most reliable method to evaluate genetic processes in a population under the condition of the environmental pollution is genetic monitoring, a survey of dynamic parameters of genetic load. An evaluation of genetical safety of an urbanized area of a city is represented in this article. The parameters of genetic load like congenital malformations and multifactorial diseases have been used in the models of monitoring. The analysis and comparison of disease frequencies in Kharkiv Dzerzhinsky District, in other European populations and in regional rural districts with various levels of production have been made.
