Abstract excerpt
With albino rats fed on beef irradiated raw with gamma-rays in a dose of 0.6 Mrad (given to animals cooked) and on fried meat irradiated with gamma-rays in a dose of 0.8 Mrad the mutagenic properties of these products and their effect on the sexual glands of male-rats were studied. The mutagenic activity of the irradiated meat products was assessed with reference to induction of dominant lethal mutations, the...
