Abstract
The genotoxic effects of five pesticides (benomyl, 2,4-D, dimecron, monocrotophos, and vitavax) were evaluated in the rat bone marrow cytogenetic assay. The spectrum of aberrations observed included chromatid breaks, chromatid fragments, ring chromosomes, dicentric chromosomes, and chromosome fragments. It was observed that 2,4-D, dimecron, and vitavax were clastogenic, but the results obtained with benomyl and monocrotophos were equivocal.Entities:
