摘要
Human peripheral lymphocytes were isolated from whole blood and exposed to culture medium of reduced osmolality. This hypotonic treatment led to a significant increase in the frequencies of chromosomal aberrations when the osmolality was reduced to 60 mOsm/kg H20 and below. Maximum damage occurred when the hypotonic treatment was done 27 or 30 h after starting the cultures. We also looked for the induction of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCE) by hypotonic culture conditions, but the SCE frequencies were not influenced. © 1990.
