Reduction in mutation frequency by very low-dose gamma irradiation of Drosophila melanogaster germ cells.

Radiation research - 1 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

To determine whether the linear no-threshold (LNT) model for stochastic effects of ionizing radiation is applicable to very low-dose radiation at a low dose rate, we irradiated immature male germ cells of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, with several doses of (60)Co gamma rays at a dose rate of 22.4 mGy/h. Thereafter, we performed the sex-linked recessive lethal mutation assay by mating the irradiated...
