The mutagenic activity of inorganic fluorine compounds.

| Fluoride [Originally published in Russian; condensed from Gigiena i Sanitariia, 37(1):9-12, Jan. 1972] | Gileva EA, Plotko EG, Gatiyatullina EE. | 8(1):47-50.
... The present investigation concerns the influence of inorganic fluorine compounds on chromosomes in bone marrow and on the mytotic activity of epithelial cells of the cornea in female white rats. The animals were exposed 6 hours a day, six days a week, for 5 months, to the inhalation of cryolite (Na3AlF6) in concentrations of 3, 1, and 0.5 mg/m3 (calculated as fluoride ion), which is frequently encountered in the air of electrolysis areas of aluminum plants, and also of a mixture of 0.5 mg/m3
