Results of the investigation of mutagenic effects of fungicides captan and benomyl in the culture of human peripheral lymphocytes in vitro with and without metabolic activation showed that captan did not manifest cytogenetic activity in any experimental variants, while benomyl induced colchicine-like and weak clastogenic effect in the concentration 10 micrograms/ml in the presence of microsomal activating mixture only.
