Resumen

Cada día, con los avances de la industria, las zonas urbanas incrementan la concentración y número de contaminantes, por ende, se exceden los valores permisibles (100 mg/m3 ) y se altera la sensibilidad de los organismos y se crean las condiciones para desarrollar mutaciones y cáncer. Históricamente, la exposición del hombre a una gran variedad de mezclas complejas se ha asociado con el aumento del riesgo para generar mutaciones y cáncer. La contribución sobre el riesgo para la salud, que ejerce la contaminación atmosférica, presenta dificultades en la identificación de los componentes tóxicos de las mezclas complejas y el poco conocimiento acerca del comportamiento de las sustancias genotóxicas encontradas en ellas.
