  • Title: Sister-chromatid exchanges in mice given irradiated wheat.
    Author: Murthy PB.
    Journal: Toxicology; 1981; 20(2-3):247-9. PubMed ID: 6789503.
    Abstract:
    The effect of feeding mice on a diet containing freshly irradiated wheat on the frequency of sister-chromatid exchange (SCE) was investigated and compared to controls fed diets containing unirradiated wheat. Mice given freshly irradiated wheat showed a mean SCE of 4.15 +/- 0.74 S.E.M., which was not significantly different from that of 3.88 +/- 0.92 seen in controls. Furthermore, chromosomes from mice fed freshly irradiated wheat were not observed to be more susceptible to the damage caused by mitomycin-C as measured by the extent of SCE induction.
