[Dependence of the yield of chromosome aberrations on the dosage in irradiating human peripheral blood lymphocytes with monoenergetic neutrons with 2, 4 and 6 MeV energies]
Abstract
A study was made of the dose-dependence of the yield of chromosome aberrations in human lymphocyte culture irradiated at the G0 stage with monoenergetic neutrons of 2, 4 and 6 MeV. The dose dependence was found to be linear for all types of aberrations. The RBE of neutrons under study increased with the decrease in their energy.
