Mutagenic effect of tritium on DNA of Drosophila melanogaster. Comprehensive performance report, December 15, 1985-June 1, 1988

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7025094
The results of the RBE determination of tritium to cobalt-69 gamma radiation along with a description of methods of treatment and dose determination are given. Using the described procedures for exposing Drosophila to tritiated water, the authors induced mutations by tritium beta radiation and recovered them at the Adh locus.
