Abstract
Experiments with the F1 and F2 generations of irradiated male mice indicate that for the mouse, andpresumably for man, there is no period of safety after irradiation; translocations and perhaps other aberrations in dangerous numbers may be transmitted for a long period after the irradiation. The extent of this period in the mouse is sought, along with a possible extrapolation for man, in further studies now in progress.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
