Abstract excerpt

A study was made of the influence of the repair genotype on lambda prophage induction by ionizing radiation of different LET in lysogenic E. coli cells. Bacterial strains W3110, P3478, GC244, and 30SO were exposed to gamma-rays and helium ions of 22 keV/microns. Induction of the prophage in GC244...
