Abstract:: |
Objective To find a new method for the measurement of radiation-induced damage, the structures of normal chromosomes and 60Coγ-ray-induced chromosomal aberration were analyzed by atomic force microscopy. Methods Normal and irradiated chromosomes of human peripheral blood lymphocytes were prepared, then three-dimensional structure and height of chromosomes were analyzed by atomic force microscopy. Results Three-dimensional structures of normal chromosomes and dicentric aberration in irradiated chromosomes were observed clearly. The data of chromosome height were helpful to recognizing the dicentric aberrations. Conclusion Atomic force microscopy providing three-dimension image and linear measurement is a new and valuable tool for structural analysis of radiation-induced chromosomal aberrations. |
