Abstract excerpt

A prolonged self-maintenance of haemopoietic tissue cells with stable chromosome rearrangements following a single intake of tritium oxide in the amount of 24 MBq/g of body weight (absorbed dose of 11 Gy) is shown. Mutant cells revealed long after the radionuclide exposure are descendants of stem...
