Description

The frequencies of CHO cells with micronuclei in the cisplatin-treated cultures showed an increase reaching a maximum 48 hours after treatment. Within the next 48 hours a slight decrease in the frequencies was observed. In γ-irradiated cultures (1.2 Gy/min at 80 cm source-skin distance) the maximum in micronuclei-induction was reached at 24 hours post-irradiation, decreasing thereafter. Cultures receiving both treatments showed a similar curve, with a peak at 24 hours, decreasing thereafter. (UK)
