Micronucleus test and assessment of changes in peripheral blood erythrocytes of dominant animal species in the Turkestan region

The article presents the results of a study peripheral blood erythrocytes dominant animal species in Turkestan region. relevance this work is due to construction nuclear power plant on territory Uzbekistan (Jizzakh region, Lake Tuzkan), since areas region fall under potential influence plants and biota objects require monitoring at ‘zero stage’ before plant. data obtained are great importance assessing impact technogenic factors biota. Given location uranium deposits content was determined samples (bones, soft tissues) amphibians fish. It has been established that concentration biological within normal range. We have carried out analysis micronuclei following representatives: desert lacerta (lat. Eremias intermedia), yellow ground squirrel Spermophilus or Citellus), lake frog Pelophylax ridibundus), rudd Redd pisces), snakehead Channa argus). According studies intermedia) various pathological conditions were observed 11% total number products studied.
