| Abstract: | The dependence of the survival rate and the number of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in Chinese hamster V79-4 cells on the dose of gamma-rays and neutrons with average energy of 0.7 MeV has been investigated. The value of RBE for neutrons is 5.5. The number of SCEs increased with the dose of gamma-radiation while no induction of SCEs could be detected after neutron irradiation. |
