Environmental pollution has negative health effects and biomonitoring is necessary to identify the regions, local sources, and temporal distribution of air pollution. The aim of this study was the estimation of cell viability, oxidative stress, DNA damage, cell cycle alterations and activation of histone H2A.X.
