Description
In the laboratory of biological dosimetry of the National Institute of Nuclear Research one carried out a calibration of chromosomal aberrations. The result obtained by the different participants does not mark to significant differences between the readings of the cells and the considered one of dose for each one of the cases. The biological material for this intercomparison was prepared in the Republic of Argentina like part of the activities of the Project Regional OIEA-RLA/9/054 Strengthening of the National Systems for the Preparation and Answer in Radiological and Nuclear Emergencies. In this regional project participates seven countries of the area and in October of this year will be presented the results of each one of them. Part of the objectives of this project is the one to conform a network of mutual aid in case of radiological accidents for which the participants must unify criteria. (Author)
