Human leucocytes were incubated in the presence of vinyl acetate or acetaldehyde (10-20 mM) for 4 h at 37 degrees C in vitro. DNA damage was analysed by alkaline elution. None of the compounds induced a detectable increase in the frequency of DNA strand breaks. Cells exposed to 5 Gy of X-ray immediately after treatment and before alkaline elution showed a clear, dose-dependent retardation of the elution rate in comparison with X-irradiated control cells. These results demonstrate that both vinyl acetate and acetaldehyde induce DNA cross-links in human cells.
