The present study was conducted to determin the potential genetic damage of occupational
exposure to EM field. The studied subjects are engineers and air traffic controllers exposed
to radio frequency emitted from different instruments. Lymphocytes of exposed and control
individuals were analyzed for structural and numerical chromosomal aberrations, sister
chromatid exchanges, mitotic activity and cell kinetics. Cells with structural chromosomal
aberrations were significantly increased in both engineers and air traffic controllers
