Rejoining of DNA fragments produced by radiations of different linear energy transfer
1 Jan 2000
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To analyse the rejoining of DNA double-strand breaks (dsb) produced by high-linear energy transfer (LET) ions, with the specific focus on the influence, on the rejoining estimates, of the way dsb are distributed along chromosomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Low passages of normal human fibroblasts (GM5758) were irradiated with 60Co photons, 40 keV/microm helium ions or nitrogen ions with LETs of 80, 125, 175...
