Rejoining of DNA single- and double-strand breaks in human white blood cells exposed to ionizing radiation
1 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To characterize inter- and intra-individual differences in X-ray-induced DNA strand break rejoining kinetics in human peripheral white blood cells (WBC) obtained from 10 healthy volunteers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The alkaline and neutral versions of the comet assay were used to measure the rate of rejoining of predominantly single-strand breaks (ssb) following exposure to 8 Gy and double-strand breaks...
