Abstrakt: The paper presents the data on cytogenetic studies of 663 children inhabited radionuclide contaminated territories of Bryansk Province. Statistically significant difference with control was observed only for the territory with the highest radioactive contamination level of 137Cs (1000 kBq/m2). For two other territories with lesser contamination (100 and 700 kBq/m2) the rate of chromosome aberrations is nearly the same and does not differ significantly from control one. No difference in the level of cytogenetic damage was discovered for children affected by radiation pre- or postnatally.
