- Abstract
Many antineoplastic drugs were found to have carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic potential. The aim of this study was to carry out cytogenetic and internal dose monitoring of hospital pharmacy personnel regularly involved in the preparation of cytostatic agents, in order to test possible cytostatics-induced genotoxic effects due to occupational exposure under routine working conditions, and in cases of accidental contamination.
