Evidence that the radioprotector effect of ascorbic acid depends on the radiation dose rate.

Environmental toxicology and pharmacology - 1 Sept 2018

González Elena, Cruces Martha P, Pimentel Emilio, Sánchez Petra

Abstract excerpt

Many studies have revealed that ascorbic acid (Aa) acts as a powerful inhibitor of genetic damage. The objetive of the present study was to evaluate the radioprotector effect of Aa at two diferent radiation dose rates. The somatic mutation and recombination test in Drosophila melanogaster was used. 48 h larvae were treated for 24 h with 25, 50 and 100 mM of Aa. After pretreatment, larvae were irradiated with...
