Locus specificity for mutation induction in human cells exposed to accelerated heavy ions.

abstract：:Cell killing and the production of DNA double-strand breaks (dsbs) were measured in parallel for V79 cells and a human tumour cell line (Caski) following exposure to radiations of differing linear energy transfer (LET) including accelerated heavy ions. Dsb induction was assessed by neutral filter elution (pH 7.4) and ...
