Description

The problem of risk assessment for a certain mutagenic agent centers around the issues of in what way the agent attackes the genetic material and to what level the mutation rate will probably rise in comparison with the rate of spontaneous mutations. Increasing mutation rate is assessed for its long-term effects and results affecting the population. (DG)

Abstract (German)

Das Problem der Risiko-Abschaetzung fuer ein bestimmtes mutagenes Agens konzentriert sich auf die Frage, auf welche Weise das Agens das genetische Material angreift und mit welchem Anstieg der Mutationsrate im Vergleich zur spontanen Mutationsrate zu rechnen ist. Die langfristigen Konsequenzen des Anstieges fuer die Bevoelkerung werden abgeschaetzt. (DG)
