ABSTRACT
For the first time the impact of odorous emissions from the enterprise for the production of chewing gum on the cytogenetic status of children, residing in the distance of 0,9 and 6 km, was studied. Specific weak mint and fruity odour in the air in the placement of the enterprise may be related to the presence of menthol, menthone, pinene, limonene, ethyl acetate and other compounds containing in the emissions. There were no differences in cytogenetic status of children in both groups (by frequency of micronuclei, protrusions, binucleated cells, apoptosis).

There were analyzed data of controls with solvents (DMSO and distilled water) of experiments performed in the laboratory of genetic monitoring in 2004-2014 on Salmonella typhimurium TA 100, TA 98 and TA 97 strains in the versions without and in the presence of metabolic activation. For all strains there was no revealed effect of the either solvent or system of metabolic activation on the average number of colonies of revertants in control. Generalized parameters (historical control) of the average number of colonies of revertants per plate: TA 100--number of experi- ments--317, average--118; 95% intervals of 71-165; TA 98--number of experiments--389, mean--22; 95% intervals 9-36; TA 97--the number of experiments--217, average--142; 95% intervals of 94-191.
