Finding

Results are summarized in Table 1. The incidence of chromosome abnormalities in the experimental groups was significantly greater than in the controls. Chromosome damage ranged from single chromatid breaks through dicentric chromosomes to occasional severe erosion of all chromosomes within a given cell.
