Abstract
Two-wavelength microspectrophotometry has shown that endoreduplicated cells in an x-irradiated culture of human leukocytes contained about twice as much DNA as diploid cells from the same culture. This supports the assumption that endoreduplicated cells represent a form of polyploidy.Keywords
