Mutagenicity assessment of environmental contaminations in a hospital centralized reconstitution unit

摘要

Introduction: Cytotoxic drug exposure of hospital staff preparing intravenous chemotherapy is a major issue and related mutagenic risks should be more explored. The aim of this study was to assess the mutagenicity of several cytotoxic mixtures prepared at fixed concentrations, and the mutagenicity of environmental samples collected in a hospital centralized reconstitution unit. In parallel cytotoxic exposure in environmental samples was quantified.
