Abstract:
Caprolactam was tested for the induction of chromosomal aberrations in cultured human lymphocytes from one male donor and one female donor. At 7.5 mg/ml, caprolactam-treated cells from the male showed a small but significant increase in the frequency of aberrations. No effect was observed in cells from the female if gaps are excluded.
