  • Title: Absence of adaptive response to low-level irradiation from tritiated thymidine and X-rays in lymphocytes of two individuals examined in serial experiments.
    Author: Bauchinger M, Schmid E, Braselmann H, Nahrstedt U.
    Journal: Mutat Res; 1989 Oct; 227(2):103-7. PubMed ID: 2797041.
    Abstract:
    No adaptation-like response to the induction of chromatid breaks could be demonstrated for lymphocytes of 2 donors pretreated with tritiated thymidine or 0.01 Gy of X-rays and subsequently exposed to a challenge dose of 1.5 Gy of X-rays. The absence of an adaptive response was already observed for these 2 donors in earlier experiments and is confirmed here under various experimental conditions.
