Abstract
The neoplastic transformation of C3H 10T1/2 cells induced by fission-spectrum neutrons delivered at a high dose rate is linear up to 40 cGy. Reducing the dose rate increases the frequency of transformation in the low dose region. At a dose rate of 0.086 cGy min-1, the initial part of the induction curve remains linear but it has a slope 9-fold greater than the initial part of the curve at a high dose rate.Mesh:
