THE EFFECT OF $sup 60$Co RADIATION ON THE GROWTH OF TRICHOMONAS VAGINALIS (in Japanese)

Journal Article · · Radioisotopes (Tokyo) (Japan)
Cultures of trichomonas vaginalis were placed on platinum plates containing 2.3, 1.0, and 0.9 mc of Co/sup 6//sup 0/, placed in an incubator, and the number counted at various times. Trichomonas have a high susceptibility to gamma radiation. Growth was inhibited, and when transplanted to a new medium, the growth rate was slow in returning to normal. Repeated irradiations and transplantations indicated no acquired radiation resistance. (N.W.R.)
