Abstract

Mechanoemission (ME) of rat peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) over the radio-frequency range has characteristic peculiarities in various stages of the cell cycle, both in unirradiated cells and in cells exposed to 0.25 or 1 Gy of gamma radiation. After 52 h incubation of irradiated and unirradiated lymphocytes, ME PBL indices take values equivalent to initial ones in the G0 phase. Increase of radiation dose from 0.25 to 1 Gy was followed by a decrease of the value of the ME PBL kinetic parameter after 24, 40 and maximum 48 h incubation.
