Chromosome aberration analysis is the conventional means of assessing radiation exposure. The Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute recently established an alternative method to measure radiation-induced chromosome aberrations in interphase cells. The method uses commercially available chemical agents to induce premature chromosome condensation in resting' G0 human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Then...
