Relationship between Aberration Yield and Mitotic Delay in Human Lymphocytes Exposed to 200 MeV/u Fe-ions or X-rays
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
The time-course of Fe-ion (200 MeV/u, 440 keV/microm) and X-ray induced chromosomal damage was investigated in human lymphocytes. After cells were exposed in G0 and stimulated to grow, aberrations were measured in first-cycle metaphases harvested 48, 60 and 72 h post-irradiation. Additionally, lesions were analysed in G2 and mitotic (M) cells collected at 48 h using calyculin A-induced premature chromosome...
