Biological dosimetry of radiation pollution of Siberia

The results of the examination of the local population of Siberia exposed to radiation at different years and their children and grandchildren are given (over 14000 persons). The cells of the people, exposed to radiation and their children and grandchildren are more sensitive to mutagenic action of radiation, chemical mutagens and viruses. It is shown that simultaneous application of pentoxylum and complex of vitamins A, E and C reduced 4-5 times the number of cells with cytogenic breaks in the radioactively exposed patients. A cytogenic method and investigation of tooth enamel by a method of ESR, as well as a micronuclei test were applied for definition of radioactive doses received by the population
