Abstract excerpt

A study was made of induction of mutations, resistant to 6-thioguanine (TGr), and reproductive death of Chinese hamster cells after irradiation by fission-spectrum fast neutrons (mean energy of 0.75 MeV) with doses of 10-130 cGy. A high relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of fast neutrons was...
