  • Title: Chromosome aberrations in human lymphocytes after irradiation with 15.0-MeV neutrons in vitro. I. Dose-response relation and RBE.
    Author: Bauchinger M, Schmid E, Rimpl G, Kühn H.
    Journal: Mutat Res; 1975 Jan; 27(1):103-9. PubMed ID: 1121311.
    Abstract:
    Human peripheral lymphocytes were irradiated with different doses of 15.0-MeV neutrons. The frequency of different aberration types was determined and the dose-response relation was calculated. The data were fitted by least-squares regression analysis to different models. The dicentric, dicentric plus centric ring, and different acentric data gave the best fit to the linear quadratic model. The RBE of 15.0-MeV neutrons versus 220 kV X-rays decreased significantly with increasing dose.
