Description

In vitro studies on human tumour cell lines would contribute to the selection of tumour types most likely to benefit of the radiation therapy with heavy charged particles, and would help selecting the optimum particle and energy. Further, measuring cell inactivation using human cell lines is necessary for space and nuclear radiation safety. Preliminary investigations are reported. (R.P.) 5 refs.; 3 figs.; 1 tab
