Direct measurements of the genetic hazards to man have been determined previously by the appearance of elevated in vivo levels of chromosome aberrations. Here we report that interindividual variations in N-acetoxy-2-acetyl-aminofluorene-induced unscheduled DNA synthesis values parallel the actual in vivo levels of chromosome damage and, therefore, may be a rapid useful supplement in genetic risk assessment for humans.
