[Rate of spontaneous chromosome aberration occurrence in cultured Chinese hamster cells].
The spontaneous chromosome mutation rate was studied in cultured aneuploid Chinese hamster cells (clone 237(1)) using the method of slowing down the rate of cell division in a limiting medium containing 0.1% of serum. It was shown that during one cell generation (which lasted 14 days in limiting medium) the accumulation of chromosome aberrations with time took place. The data obtained are in keeping with the assumption of a linear dependence of this accumulation on time. The spontaneous chromosome rearrangement rate was 1.2 X 10(-2) mutations per cell per 24 hours. Proceeding from this value the spontaneous chromosome aberration rate in cells with a normal duration of the cell cycle was 0.6 X 10(-2) per cell per generation.
