Cytogenetic studies of blood lymphocytes of Marshall Islanders, 10 years after their exposure to radiation from fallout in 1954, show chromosome-type aberrations in 23 of 43 exposed persons. Half the aberrations are of the exchange type. An unexpectedly large number of acentric fragments, but no exchange-type aberrations, appear in a few unexposed people on the same island.
对马绍尔群岛居民血液淋巴细胞进行的细胞遗传学研究表明,在1954年遭受沉降物辐射10年后,43名受辐射者中有23人出现了染色体型畸变。其中一半的畸变属于易位型。在同一岛屿上的一些未受辐射者中,出现了数量意外多的无着丝粒片段,但没有易位型畸变。
