Research project PS/17 (Research action PS)
The association between benzene-induced abnormalities in the peripheral blood picture and genetic polymorphisms with the objective of studying the possible relevance or irrelevance of using genetic and non-genetic tests/practices in hiring examinations and periodical medical examinations for the prevention of hematolymphopoietic abnormalities.
- Generate hypotheses about the relationship between genetic sensitivity factors known to be involved in the metabolism of xenobiotic agents, and the effect of moderate exposure to benzene on the peripheral blood picture of healthy employees;
- Contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between environmentally-induced changes in the peripheral blood and the risk of serious hematolymphopoietic disorders.
