Abstract excerpt
The X-ray-sensitive Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mutant cell lines xrs 5 and xrs 6 were used to study the relation between X-ray-induced DNA lesions and biological effects. The frequencies of chromosomal aberrations and sister-chromatid exchanges (SCE) were determined in wild-type CHO-K1 as well as mutants xrs 5 and xrs 6 cells following X-irradiation under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Furthermore, we used a...
