Abstract excerpt
To investigate individual variation and age dependency in normal cell radiosensitivity, we measured the in vitro radiosensitivity of cultured peripheral blood T-lymphocytes derived from 56 healthy male blood donors. Dose-survival tests using colony formation assay were done with exponential growing T-cells (day 3, PHA-stimulated cells). 6-Thioguanine (6-TG)-resistant mutation assays at the hypoxanthine...
