 Creation of dose dependency calibration curve of
chromosomal aberrations in human peripherial blood
lymphocytes exposed to protons beam
(LET≤100keV/µm) performed at Phasotrone (LNP,
JINR)
 Biological dosimetry - Allow to assess an accidental
radiation dose on base of the level of changes in
chromosome structure.
