Effect of Low Doses of Ionizing Radiation on Cells Cultured from the Hematopoietic Tissue of the Dublin Bay Prawn, Nephrops norvegicus

Abstract

Explant cultures from the hematopoietic tissue of the Dublin Bay prawn, Nephrops norvegicus, were exposed to low doses of (60)Co gamma radiation. Cells growing from the explants were examined 7 days after irradiation using light and transmission electron microscopy and were also tested for their ability to produce signals indicative of a bystander effect. The exposed cultures displayed pronounced damage and were orders of magnitude more …
