Notes. Values are means ± SD based on 250 cells counted. Total includes fragments, gaps, dicentrics and Robertsonian translocations. Fragments include chromosome and chromatid types, including intersitital deletions, terminal deletions and breaks. Gaps include chromatid and isochromatid types. Dicentrics were of the chromatid type and Robertsonian translocations were of the chromosome type.
