35. Detection of numerical chromosome aberrations in sperm of workers exposed to benzene series by two-color fluorescence in situ hybridization
To study the frequency of numerical chromosome aberrations in sperm of workers exposed to benzene series, the aneuploidy frequencies of 9 and 18 chromosomes were detected in sperm of workers by two color fluorescence in situ hybridization with digoxingenin labeled 9 chromosome probe (D9zl) and biotin labeled 18 chromosome probe (D18zl). The timeweight average air concentration (TWA ) of benzene in the workplace was 86.49 mg/m3, it was two fold higher than the national maximum allowable concentration. The concentration of urinary trans,trans-muconic acid (ttMA) in exposed group was significantly higher than that of control group. The sperms counted in 14 exposed workers and 16 control workers were 136 401 and 156 955 respectively. The results showed that the disomy frequencies of sperm for chromosome 9, 18 in (0.168%±0.063% and 0.055%±0.031% respectively) and the frequency of diploidy sperm (0.073%±0.045%) were statistically increased over that of the control group(0.050%±0.030%; 0.033%±0.025% and 0.040%±0.036%, respectively). The nullisomic frequencies of 9,18 chromosome in the exposed group (0.206%±0.047%, 0.068%±0.044%) were statistically increased over that of the control group too (0.067%±0.037%, 0.048%±0.034%). The frequency of overall numerical chromosome aberrations in the exposed group was 0.570%±0.144%, when this value was compared with that of control (0.218%±0.071%), a statistically significance was presented. Our experiments showed that exposed to benzene at higher concentration may induce increase in aneuploidy frequency of sperm autosomal chromosome in exposed workers.
