Abstract

The article represents the application of cytogenetic and Comet assay for studying mutagenic effects of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine and N-Nitrosodimethylamine. The statistical analysis revealed a dosedependent and time-dependent (acute, subacute study) genotoxic activity of these xenobiotics on mice. Statistically significant increases of cells with aberrant metaphases and level of polyploid cells were observed. Organ-specific genotoxicity of UDMH and NDMA is established. The mice organs may be arranged by sensitivity to DNA damaging action as follows: lungs
