Radiosensitization of EL4 lymphoma cells by a commonly used food additive-butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT)

Journal Article · · Mutation Research, Section on Environmental Mutagenesis and Related Subjects including Methodology

The potential radiosensitizing ability of the food additive butylated hydroxytoluene (3HT) on mouse EL4 lymphoma cells was investigated. The results indicate that BHT is a very potent radiosensitizer for the EL4 lymphoma cells.
