title: [Evaluation of the mutagenic effects of environmental factors using polyorgan micronuclear test].
abstract: The author reviews the results of studies in which mutagenic effects of environmental factors were investigated using polyorgan micronuclear test, and substantiates the application of this test. This new approach enables fulfillment of various hygienic tasks, such as evaluation of the mutagenic activity of individual factors and mixtures (evaluation of total mutagenic activity), and detection of the level of human genetic lesions.
