[Chromosome structural damages to the myelokaryocytes of rats in late periods after chronic exposure to tritium and external gamma irradiation].

A pronounced variation in the total amount and spectrum of chromosome aberrations of rat myelocarycytes was found at later times following long-term exposure to tritium oxide and external gamma-radiation (137Cs). Cells with atypical chromosomes (symmetrical exchanges) were 1.5-2 times more frequent in bone marrow of tritium-treated rats throughout the entire lifetime.
