  • Title: [Effect of radiations with varying linear energy transfer on the skin of mice].
    Author: Savchenko NIa, Portman AI, Ryzhov NI.
    Journal: Kosm Biol Aviakosm Med; 1981; 15(3):63-5. PubMed ID: 6270453.
    Abstract:
    Experiments were carried out to measure the time and severity of the radiation reaction of the skin of mice exposed to X- and gamma-radiations, protons with energies of 645 and 50 MeV as well as accelerated helium ions at doses of 200 to 4000 rad. It was found that relative biological effectiveness coefficients of 645 and 50 MeV protons were 1.0 and those of helium ions were 1.3 for the skin reaction at early and late stages of observation. No significant difference in the time of manifestation of radiation-induced skin lesions as related to radiations with various LET was detected.
