construction of a dose – response curve by induction of premature chromosome condensation for biological dosimetry
Authors
abstract
premature chromosome condensation (pcc) appears to have a possible utility for biological dosimetry purposes. the pcc technique may be adapted for cases of suspicion of overexposure where sampling is performed at least one day after an accident. for this purpose, human blood samples were exposed in vitro to 60co up to 10 gy and the pcc technique was performed immediately after irradiation. analysis of excess pcc fragments distribution showed an over dispersion and the dose- effect relationship was best characterized by linear regression. iran. j. radiat. res., 2009 6 (4): 213-218

Construction of a dose – response curve by induction of premature chromosome condensation for biological dosimetry
Premature Chromosome Condensation (PCC) appears to have a possible utility for biological dosimetry purposes. The PCC technique may be adapted for cases of suspicion of overexposure where sampling is performed at least one day after an accident.

Dose assessment of radiation victims is a key element in medical management of radiation accidents. At high radiation doses (> 6 Gy), dicentric assay lose its efficiency and premature chromosome condensation (PCC) assay was proposed to overcome the restrictions of dicentric assay. It was shown that PCC ring is more suitable and simpler than dicentric for biodosimetry in high radiation doses. In...

Background: Premature chromosome condensation (PCC) is a method for interphase chromosome analysis in biodosimetry. This study was performed to verify the usefulness of PCC induced by calyculin A in human peripheral blood lymphocytes (pbl) for biological dosimetry and possible construction of dose-response curve. Materials and Methods: Peripheral blood was obtained from a healthy donor and expo...
full textConstruction of Calibration Curve for Premature Chromosome Condensation Assay for Dose Assessment
Cytogenetic dosimetry plays an important role in the triage and medical management of affected people in radiological incidents/accidents. Cytogenetic biodosimetry uses different methods to estimate the absorbed dose in the exposed individuals, and each approach has its advantages and disadvantages. Premature chromosome condensation (PCC) assay presents several advantages that hopefully fulfill...

full textDetermination of dose-response relationship in cultured human lymphocytes for biological dosimetry
Background: Lymphocyte-dicentric assay is the most generally accepted method for biological dosimetry of overexposed individuals. In this study, the frequency of unstable chromosome aberration in blood lymphocytes was used to estimate radiation dose received by individuals. Evaluation of dose using a calibration curve produced elsewhere may have a significant uncertainty therefore, experiments ...
