OSTI ID:4246777
The genetic effects produced on humans by small doses of ionizing radiation are discussed. The problem is enhanced by the global increase of radioactivity due to the atomic and hydrogen weapons tests, medical uses in diagnostic and therapeutic treatments, and the increased number of personnel in contact with radioactive materials. A short review is given of the regularities in new hereditary mutations in plants and animals and the effects of radiation on these processes. (R.V.J.)
