title: [Genetic effect of incorporated 137 Cs in male mice after single injection of the isotope].
abstract: A comparative study of the incidence of genetic damages induced in mouse male germ cells by a single injection of 137Cs and external gamma-irradiation shows that the incidence of dominant lethal mutations in the postmeiotic cells is similar with both radiation types. The frequency of reciprocal translocations in stem cell spermatogonia was considerably lower with 137Cs than with external gamma-irradiation which might be attributed to the prolonged effect of the radionuclide.
