Effectiveness of a fast neutron beam in relation to DNA lesions in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells irradiated in water phantom

Creators

Description

The study of damages to DNA molecules of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells exposed in water phantom to fast neutron beam (mean energy of 6 MeV) showed that changes in the extent of DNA injury did not correlate with the absorbed dose distribution at the phantom depth of 8-12 cm, and also that the dose - response function in the phantom was different from that obtained upon irradiation of cells in the air
