Abstract excerpt
We have analysed spermatogenetic cells by flow cytometry to quantify effects of ionizing radiation. The radiation-induced reductions of testicular DNA-synthesizing cells, primary spermatocytes, haploid round and elongated spermatids as well as the increases of numerical chromosome aberrations (abnormal diploid spermatids and aneuploidies) in NMRI inbred mice are described. Testicular weights were determined as a...
