Dosimetric applications of cellular electrophysiological changes under high- and low-let irradiation in health physics

  • 1. Salzburg Univ. (Austria). Lehrkanzel fuer Physik

Description

In a series of 60 experiments it could be demonstrated that both human normal and transformed lung cells show a pronounced temporary hyperpolarization of the transmembrane resting potential within seconds after low-level in vitro irradiation (dose rates of 20 mGy/min from a Co60 source). This cellular response varied in intensity and duration in dependence of the linear energy transfer of the irradiation mode applied. (U.K.)
