The Dose Response of Chromosome Aberrations in Human Lymphocytes Induced<i>In Vitro</i>by Very Low-Dose γ Rays
4 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
This paper considers the dose-effect relationship for unstable chromosome aberration yields in human lymphocytes in very low-dose range. Data are presented for (60)Co γ-ray doses of 0, 10, 20, 40 and 1000 mGy. More than 5,000 metaphases were scored for each data point at the very low doses, and each cell was double-checked using a semi-automated metaphase finding/relocation system. Aberration yields of dicentrics...
