Impact assessment of ionizing radiation on human and non-human biota from the vicinity of a near-surface radioactive waste repository.

abstract：:High steady-state transcriptional activity is essential for normal mitochondrial function. The requisite transcription rate is satisfied in part by high copy number of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). In the present study, we analyze mtDNA copy number by real-time PCR in nucleated blood cells from control mice and mice expo...
