Abstract
Female mice were irradiated with gamma-rays at low dose rates from a Cs source during different periods of their 1st weeks of life. The administration of 100 R during the second week made females sterile. Additional experiments with lower doses carried out during this sensitive period suggested a linear relationship between dose and fertility.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
