Bystander Effects Induced by Exposure to Sublethal Radiation and Heavy Metals in Atlantic Salmon

Abstract

These experiments were designed to identify cellular effects in 3 key organs in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar, L.) after exposure in vivo to very low doses of radiation, and subtoxic levels of aluminum (Al) and cadmium (Cd) or copper (Cu) alone or in combination. The salmon (approx. 35g) were exposed to doses of 4, 18 and 75 mGy doses of gamma radiation, respectively, administered over 5 hrs in untreated lake water or with Cd, Al or Cd+Al added …
