Abstract excerpt
Mutation induction after exposures to 250 kVp X-rays, alpha-particles from the radon daughter 212Bi, and fission-spectrum neutrons from the JANUS reactor was studied in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) K1 cells and in CHO-10T5, a K1 derivative containing the bacterial gene xanthine-guanine phosphoribo...
